 South Florida is unique in many ways and none more so than our geography. On the one hand our location to Latin America has made Miami the default gateway for trade to the region. On the other hand our almost 200 mile long tri-county presents unique challenges to our business community. In a world where collaboration is key, getting groups of people around the same table can be troublesome. Nevertheless, our tech community is strong and growing thanks in no small part to the efforts of groups like Venture Hive and Incubate Miami.
Register now for the next big event, ITProCamp, Saturday, July 13th.
The ITPalooza organizing committee shall meet in person the evening of July 23rd at 7:30pm, after the Joint Security event at NSU Register now

| South Florida’s app economy emerging on many fronts
|
 By one measure, South Florida’s app economy appears to be growing faster than the overall economy. The number of payroll jobs in information services, a broad sector of the economy encompassing software development and publishing, has risen by 1,200 in Miami-Dade and Broward counties since 2010, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The 12-month average for the two counties increased to 35,800 last year from 35,000 in 2011, a 2.3 percent rise, about double the growth rate of total non-farm employment in the two counties. National employment in information services totaled 2,688,000 in June, virtually unchanged from a year ago, the U.S. Department of Labor reported Friday. More..
