Welcome to hiVelocity!

Ohio is at the forefront of a new economy, creating new ideas, innovative businesses and new jobs needed for the 21st century.

It's an important story. Now, hiVelocity is here to tell it.

hiVelocity will publish every two weeks, bringing you in-depth features, innovation and job growth news, Q&As by leading experts, and pictures and videos that capture a new environment in which all things are possible.

"We will speak to, and with, the leaders of the emerging economy," says Brian J. Boyle, publisher of hiVelocity and co-founder of online media company Issue Media Group, which also publishes the Soapbox Web zine in Cincinnati. "hiVelocity is about challenging how you see your state and its future."

Why do we call it hiVelocity?

The name captures both the speed and the direction that characterize Ohio's growth. From aerospace, to advanced materials, to clean energy to everything else, Ohio is moving forward and fast. In partnership with a wide variety of organizations that support Ohio's Third Frontier program and other efforts to grow new jobs in Ohio, we will get to the bottom of what's driving progress in our state.

hiVelocity will publish every other Thursday and will be distributed free via e-mail. Sign up at www.hiVelocitymedia.com. Do you know of a story we should cover? Send your story ideas and news tips to [email protected].
