Entrepreneurship — Non-Profits @ Internet Speed
A forum to discuss the connections of people, information technology, and services transforming American life.

Speaker:

Kim Miller

Kim Miller, director of the Philadelphia Interactive Business Network (PIBN), has more than 20 years sales and marketing experience in the technology industry. PIBN is the online version of the 10-year-old business incubator system pioneered in Philadelphia by The Enterprise Center.

Prior to joining The Enterprise Center, Ms. Miller led client development marketing efforts for a number of high-tech software companies in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. Most recently, she directed sales and marketing for IPM Computer Systems in New York. She also developed a channel sales strategy and marketing campaign for TeleMagic, Inc., a Dallas-based sales automation software company, that dramatically increased market-share for an American software publisher operating in Australia.

Ms. Miller, who has worked at The Enterprise Center since 1998, was responsible for the Center’s marketing, public relations, and advertising operation until taking on this new assignment. Now, through the PIBN program and the use of advanced networking technologies, Ms Miller’s program will train more than 500 potential adult entrepreneurs in Internet technology with the goal of developing 20 new firms. Participants will use high-speed Internet connection in labs, at their workplaces, or in their homes to access PIBN’s training and mentoring programs and collaborate on business ventures. In addition, more than 1,200 youth will be exposed to technology-based entrepreneurship and will create a youth-run website development company.

Ms Miller is a native of Philadelphia. Educated at California State University of Los Angeles, she is a member of the American Marketing Association.
