Free publicity for Acadiana tech companies in ABIZ
Acadiana Business is once again compiling a list of local technology companies for its October issue. Inclusion on the list is free, but we need to hear from you asap. The list will include basic information about the company, including address, phone number and Web address, top local executive, year founded and total local staff. New to this year’s list is an opportunity for you to provide a more comprehensive overview of your core competencies/services provided. Your core competencies will run in paragraph form, so please be brief, as we reserve the right to edit your responses due to space considerations.
Acadiana Business is a monthly publication of The Independent Weekly that is mailed to 500 top executives across Acadiana, available free-standing at select locations and inserted into The Independent the last Wednesday of each month. (The November oil and gas issue, however, will publish Oct. 21 due to LAGCOE). Acadiana Business’ October issue, which focuses on technology, will be out Sept. 30.
For more information on criteria for inclusion on the tech list and to receive the form, contact Tim Lambert at
