Message: [QUOTE="Da_Aisijimo_Gou, post: 2774057, member: 264"] Time will tell regarding Infosys' follow through on an incentive-motivated commitment to hire 1,000 people in/near Hartford. [COLOR=#0000ff][U][I][URL='http://www.hartfordbusiness.com/article/20180703/NEWS01/180709988']If West Hartford signs off on UConn's proposed West Hartford branch sale to Beijing-based Seven Stars Cloud Group, the little known SSC suggests it may hire 300+ people[/URL][/I][/U][/COLOR] at some point. SSC accessed NASDAQ via a reverse merger. For unclear & unsubstantiated reasons, SSC's share price has increased some recently; all of the way to $2.19/shr. ;) If the AI fintech/blockchain/cryptocurrency-related SSC actually builds on its' reported [I]70-person total [/I]global employee base (Beijing & some SG oil traders) and delivers on enthusiastic promises to CT, it will be interesting to observe. Whether SSC's enthusiastic CEO's promises and the unproven SSC is even a small part of helping CT's struggling economy (ex-Fairfield County) ... But hey, $10 million in CT state taxpayer incentives buys 330 possible jobs (~$30K/job). Should SSC actually become a viable profitable business, maybe UConn even reaps some rewards from finally selling the West Hartford branch. [/QUOTE]
