Hey Peep, Don't be too sure about FNTN not needing a silo: if they make good on their previous "forward-looking" <G> PRs, Data Warehousing could be the field we are searching for which could put them on the map.
I have never seen FNTN as an "internet play." Just too far out in the bushes to benefit from the e-momentum. BUT (a BIG but) they are in a great position to provide the DW services touted as the "next wave" to insurance companies, healthcare cos., brokerages, even state and local governments, if they can get a sales staff that understands what they have to sell. It's not just videos that require robotics. DW is cumbersome, slow, and storage-intensive, and if Siemens and the robot's daddy can make FNTN the leader because of speed and reliability, all the better.
In the absence of any news, we are searching around to try and find FNTN's niche: maybe a suggestion here could open some eyes in Ardsley? How about the electoral process of voting? Data-intensive, must be secure, etc. Any thoughts?
All the best, M. |
