Over the past seven years ECOMCV has be managing and participating in projects that has promoted business development through ecommerce. We have done this through the collaboration of many of the key organizations and industry sectors in the area with great success. In order to move with business and community needs and to continue to be successful, we have broadened our scope and merged with the newly formed Central Victorian IT Cluster.
As a member of the IT community in Central Victoria, you may well be aware that a feasibility study funded by the Victorian Government was completed in February 2006 to determine if an ICT Cluster should be established in the broader Bendigo region. The study concluded that there was a need for a Cluster based around IT and has now been formally created.
The Cluster will work in close collaboration with existing business networks and many of the activities that the ECOMCV has undertaken since its inception in 2000, for example, informational and educational seminars will continue to be part of the deliverables from the CVITC.
The IT Cluster will enable IT businesses to partner for new business opportunities leveraging each other’s strengths, sharing resources and mitigating risk to win business. CVITC will be supporting and assisting the formation of opportunities for the IT sector in this region and other industries to access IT resources.
