A Bold New CONCEPT Gathering Momentum! The Power of Ideas @ R&D Consultants Associates, Inc.
(PRWEB) November 14, 1999
San Antonio, Texas. November 15, 1999.--
Having overcome the hurdles typically facing 'start up businesses' and most of the difficulties involved in turning an Idea (about a Virtual Corporation) into a Reality, R&D Consultants Associates, Inc. is now fully operational, Y2K compliant, and ready to enter the New Millennium.
A Bold New Vision of Things to Come! A 21st Century Virtual Research and Development Consulting Firm for ALL your NEEDS! A One-Stop Shopping for all Consulting Services! It offers opportunities for Distance Learning, Consulting, Cyber - or Tele-commuting, and articulates a New Role for the so-called "Cognitive Elite" in a Knowledge-based Society.
R&D, Inc is staffed and managed by highly qualified and talented professionals in various fields of expertise and experience, organized into a Global Network of Consultants, and providing a wide range of services worldwide.
Sciences, Technology, Engineering Information and Communication Business, Management, Leadership Education, Healthcare, Environment Public Policy, Advocacy, World Affairs Creative Arts and Humanities Applied Philosophy
Now comprising close to 250 consultants and growing, R&D's goal, according to its current Executive Director [Nader N. Chokr, Ph. D.], is to have over 1000 consultants in its Global Network by the end of the year 2001.
According to industry analysts, R&D, Inc. seems, like many other recent internet-driven enterprises, to have seized upon a very sound and innovative CONCEPT --very much in tune with the times. It is in effect responding to the growing needs and demands of the age of information, communication, and knowledge explosion now upon us due to the rapid and unprecedented technological developments that we are all witnessing. It could not have happened at any other time in history. Its virtual nature, far from diminishing its reality, is in fact its main asset. It enables R&D, Inc to keep operating costs relatively low while maximizing efficiency and returns, and securing increasingly more significant margins of profitability. In fact, it is bound to grow and gain larger and larger shares of the online consulting business, as the latter grows and becomes more widely accepted in the years to come.
R&D, Inc is an attempt to show how one can harness the power of a "Network" of 'highly educated and experienced professionals,' and turn it into a highly marketable and profitable resource. In the emerging society, it is not so much Information that is valuable (there is already an overload), but Knowledge, i. e, Information properly gathered and managed, critically examined and evaluated, and relevantly applied.
Because of its network, R&D, Inc. is certainly positioned very favorably, poised as it is on the frontlines of the Information and Knowledge Age --tracking, keeping up with, and taking the full critical measure of all the Global Changes sweeping the world at this juncture of our History, and already affecting almost all aspects of our personal, social, and professional lives.
In addition to its online business and profit-making operations, R&D, Inc is also involved in non-profit activities, by virtue of its affiliation with The Institute for Applied Philosophy, Public Policy, and World Affairs, an organization dedicated to philanthropic work, social entrepreneurship, research and advocacy on issues and problems of importance to human beings worldwide. As such, it exemplifies one of the new and most encouraging features of recent corporate culture. [See Posted Draft Charter].
Currently, it is experimenting with two bold new ventures: [1] The IdeasStore --a sort of multidisciplinary incubator for new and creative Ideas in any field, on any subject, in any area. [2] Philosophers-On-Call --an attempt to take philosophy outside of the abstract, sterile, and esoteric world of academia and apply it in a new and daring way to the daily and practical lives of ordinary human beings in order to show the benefits and values accrued to human existence by a properly conceived approach to philosophy.
According its posted plans, R&D's projected new ventures will include: (1) Portraits of America --a multimedia productions unit; and (2) Global Exchange --an Export/Import division to serve as 'intermediary' between manufacturers/producers and distributors/ retailers. As it is, it is worth noting, R&D, Inc has found it advantageous and simply good business sense to forge alliances, establish affiliations and partnerships with a good number of other businesses, corporations, and firms worldwide.
