Yes Don that's me. If you want to see the story pictures and all go to the Ottawa Citizen web site and type in doyletech.
However, below is the story. We expect to have a lot of fun.

P.S. Thanks for your kind words. I intend to do my best to add value to the SI threads I follow.
Karyn Standen The Ottawa Citizen
Technology guru and financier
Denzil Doyle is handing over
the reins of his business
consulting firm to his son.
Jeffrey Doyle, 32, and his
business partner, Glenn
McDougall, 44, will run
Doyletech Corp., which the
senior Mr. Doyle founded in
1982 to provide business
planning services to public
and private-sector
enterprises. Noting he
devotes most of his time to
being chairman of Capital
Alliance Ventures Inc., the
venture-capital firm he started
in 1994, he said: "I can't run
(Doyletech) forever myself,
and there's a lot more to be
done" with the consulting
company.
Even so, he is not leaving
Doyletech entirely. He will
remain on a part-time basis to
provide business management
assistance to the new
partners, and to continue
using Doyletech as a vehicle
for delivering his technology
business seminars and
workshops.
Jeffrey Doyle, who holds a
bachelor of commerce degree
from Carleton University,
intends to broaden
Doyletech's scope to provide
a range of economic
development, business
planning and market research services to eastern Ontario companies and
municipalities.
The company will target the technology industry, with a primary goal being to
help outside companies and municipalities sell services and products to
Ottawa's high-tech sector.
"I'd like to see (the new partners) produce a product, a huge volume on how
to sell to the high-tech industry, and out of that, clients will come," Denzil
Doyle said.
"The high-tech industry is taking off, and there's no market research
company in Ottawa that can do what we want to do," said Jeffrey Doyle.
Doyletech will also continue distributing Denzil Doyle's book, Making
Technology Happen, and regularly update its detailed "family tree" of Ottawa
technology companies.
Jeffrey Doyle plans to concentrate on developing Doyletech's market and
economic research services, while Mr. McDougall will provide financial
management and sales expertise.
Doyletech will be self-financing for the "foreseeable future," Jeffrey Doyle
said, adding the partners have no immediate plans to raise outside capital.
