I enjoyed our conversation and am excited to assist your organization in defining and fulfilling this vision. NETLink International focuses on matching business objectives with proven technology solutions. We believe it is critical to first define our clients needs before we make any recommendations. This allows our clients to keep technology in line with their business needs,to be proactive with technology implementations, to provide proper funding for projects, and most importantly, to provide the largest impact from the dollars spent on technology. NETLink has provided professional technology solutions to many organizations similar to Saint Anthony Village. Some if these include: The City of Shoreview The City of Fridley The City of Brooklyn Park The City of Oakdale The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board The Minneapolis Institute of Arts The Minneapolis Public Housing Authority The common thread between these clients is that NETLink made them more productive by enhancing and stabilizing their information systems.
