Compugen’s ‘Charity Technology Pool’ - Wednesday December-02-2009

Location: Canadian Centre for Abuse Awareness

Compugen's "CHARITY TECHNOLOGY POOL"

It can be difficult to run a charity optimally while supported by 4 to 5-year old technology (however generously it may have been donated).

Compugen has come up with a very unique concept that would have not-for-profits see greater benefits than through direct technology donations.

Here is Compugen's amazing solution in THREE easy steps:

1. Compugen Finance purchases end-of-life IT assets, from your Corporation, that have been deemed to retain some resale value.
2. Proceeds from those transactions would, rather than to the Corporation, be deposited in the CCAA’s “Technology Pool” at Compugen.
3. CCAA can access 50% of these funds by sourcing new/like-new technology or professional services from Compugen, while the remaining 50% will be converted into cash for the CCAA.

                                                        

*All assets will be data-wiped (to predetermined standards) and audited at Compugen’s 8000 square foot, ISO certified facility, and re-sold using CFI’s remarketing team.
