Register Now for the June 21 "2007 Greater Cincinnati Inventors' Fair" Thinkronize: Helping Students Succeed President, CEO and co-founder of Thinkronize Randy Wilhelm proved to the GCVA audience on May 15, 2007, that you CAN fund and grow a business in the Cincinnati area. Randy, who has always had a passion for helping kids learn, has turned this desire into a successful company that is currently supporting more than nine million students and 450,000 teachers in their educational quest. Thinkronize's main product is netTrekker, a search engine designed specifically for students in the K-12 market. "We provide highly-effective technology for enhancing the education of youth," says Randy. "It all came out of envisioning a day when there was so much data on the web that a search engine was needed to filter it." NetTrekker provides relevant search results based on both algorithmic and social (human) searches through an easy-to-use, intuitive interface. Randy describes, "Students are searching a database of resources that are appropriate for their use," which makes it easier and safer for them to search the web. Currently, 9.3 million students, through 450,000 teachers, at 18,000 schools, in 50 states, use netTrekker. The software has won 21 national awards, including the Best Educational Solution for 2007 from the software education industry. NetTrekker boasts a 90+% renewal rate with over 1.25 million searches taking place daily.

To Join Inventors' Fair June 21: New Products & Young Inventors Section Rick Kieser tests a new product at the 2006 Inventors' Fair The annual Inventors' Fair is always a great time to see what interesting new technology is hitting the market. This year's Fair will be no different, with 10 Presenters and 14 Exhibitors. Items like the EZ Change Lock, which "changes the key, not the lock;" the Quick-n-Easy Boat Guide, which makes loading & unloading simple; and SlipKicks, rubber overshoes that increase safety & performance in skateboarding; all will make this year's Fair better than ever. An added bonus is the Young Inventors section. Ten students, aged 9-12, will be showing products they developed. There are several good enough to take to market - so don't miss seeing them and meeting these budding inventors who could be tomorrow's successful entrepreneurs. Note: New Location!
