1) How has MTIP impacted your company or ability to hire interns?
MTIP has made it easier for RCI to hire interns, develop talent, and develop corporate services by having students participate in innovative projects and potential solutions for delivery of services to our clients
2) What inspired the founder to start the company?
The inspiration to start the company came from my own experiences as a college student. I frequently encountered dishonest technical services that left me frustrated and dissatisfied. This motivated me to create a company that prioritizes integrity and transparency, ensuring that others don’t have to face the same challenges I did. My goal was to provide reliable and honest technical services that people can trust.
3) What problem is the company solving, or what service or feature is the company providing?
By prioritizing integrity and customer satisfaction, we aim to build long-term relationships based on trust and reliability. Additionally, we specialize in custom solutions and not a one size barely fits all structure which sets us apart by offering unique solutions that address specific needs in the market. This feature not only enhances our service offerings but also demonstrates our commitment to innovation and excellence.
4) Can you share a major milestone or success that has had a significant impact on your company’s growth?
We received capital funding from Microsoft to allow us to do internal R&D for Mixed reality and XR technology solutions
5) What is your company aiming to achieve in the next 5 to 10 years?
We want to be on the forefront of technological advancements relating to providing innovative customer services that set us apart from competitors and makes a difference in providing supportive services to clients while solving their technology problems. Some innovation includes using XR and AI technologies.
6) What advice would you give to someone wanting to start a company in your industry?
Be sure to stay diverse in your business. It really helps to understand the needs of the clients and using the technical tools today makes it 100% easier than when I started. Targeted skills is great but when starting out it helps to diversify your portfolio of clients and services to ensure you stay afloat when starting.
