Deane and I had the pleasure of attending the Grand Opening of Queen Creek’s new business incubator, QC Inc. on Wednesday (02/09/2011) evening. The facility, which is located at 22713 S. Ellsworth Road, Building A, looks absolutely amazing! There are great office spaces available, social networking areas, access to top-of-the-line office machinery, coffee bar, a privacy office, and a lovely conference room sponsored by SRP. Anyone in the Queen Creek area with a home or small business would highly benefit from QC Inc.! The incubator location actually houses the Queen Creek Chamber of Commerce, and has partnered with My Brother’s Office, an incubation hosting facility.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony at 5:30 PM was held by the Queen Creek Chamber of Commerce, and included several speakers. The first was Kim Moyers, the Economic Development Specialist for the Town of Queen Creek, followed by: Mayor Gail Barney; Lee Ester of SRP; Marquis Scott, MEd., President/Executive Director of the Queen Creek Chamber of Commerce; and Jeff Cutler from My Brother’s Office. Foote Consulting Group received a mention as well, as we conducted the initial feasibility study for the incubator. We caught up with many of our fellow economic development contacts, and made some new ones too. Kim Moyers gave us the grand tour, and we dined on the awesome spread catered by a nearby smokehouse. It was a superb event. We wish QC Inc. all the best!
