Update on Applied Research Solutions

ARS Logo 

Our for-profit, small business subsidiary was activated on 1 March 2012. Since then, many significant milestones have been reached. The management team is now in place, as is the Board of Directors, and the logo (seen above) has been finalized. ARS is well on its way to operability. Read More

STEM Efforts Featured on Dayton's NBC News Affiliate
Riverside Research gets teens interested in technology

The STEM efforts of our Education and Training Directorate were featured on WDTN Channel 2 News earlier this month (watch video above). This "School Patrol" segment highlights our intern program by interviewing one of our biggest success stories - Jim Godby. From displaced auto worker to valued member of our Information Dominance staff, Jim's road to success began when he enrolled in our intern program as a student at Sinclair Community College.  Website

 

The STK software used by our interns is provided by business partner, Analytical Graphics, Inc. (AGI). Read their blog post here.

Corporate Sponsorship Program

2011 Wright-Patt Awards 

Last year, Riverside Research began an official corporate sponsorship program to create good will through community involvement and foster new revenue sources through targeted brand exposure. In many ways, the Wright-Patterson Awards Program served as the impetus for establishing our sponsorship program given our strong ties to the U.S. Air Force. Read more about the program and the recent Team Wright-Patt Awards Banquet here.

Four Things to Put on Your Watchlist

 Team Bananas

 

Annual Report: Many years have passed since Riverside Research last published an annual report. Thanks to the hard work and creativity of several contributing staff members, we're happy to announce that the 2011 Annual Report is nearly complete. Look for it in April! 

 

Senior Technical Experts: On 23 February, our newly appointed Senior Technical Experts (STEs) gathered for a VTC between the DRC and WRO to formally kickoff the STE program. Many of the ideas shared will soon materialize into valuable resources for our entire staff. More information is soon to follow, as well as a new STE webpage on our website.

 

PhD Students: If you're currently pursuing a PhD, please let us know. We'd like to feature our doctorate students and candidates in a future issue of Wavelengths. Simply send an email to wavelengths@riversideresearch.org to let us know.

 

Employee Survey: KRC Research returned the results of our anonymous employee survey; the response rate was 79%. We greatly appreciate your participation and candid feedback; Riverside Research will be better for it. The results will soon be shared with the directors which in turn will be shared with all staff. Look for it soon.

TechFest 2012: A Resounding Success 

TechFest 2012 

On February 18th and 19th, Michael Lovingshimer and Dr. Andrew Shepherd of our E&T Directorate manned the Riverside Research booth at Dayton's annual TechFest event as thousands upon thousands of people - young and old - made their way through the jam-packed exhibit halls. In addition to interactive e-Text demonstrations, our booth served as the hub for an exciting intelligence-based scavenger hunt that proved to be wildly successful.
