THE FCIP LOGO ORIGIN STORY
Our logo was designed with the diversity and creativity of our members in mind.
- The infinity loop represents, among many things, our appreciation for infinite creation, ideas and learning.
- The component parts of the logo also represent collaboration and kinetic potential.
- These elements all live in an abstract cubed space, which is a placeholder for their virtual environment.
Many thanks to John Patzman of 1KRobots for designing our logo and to the FCIP members who voted for this design to represent our amazing group!

It's the math problem they don't tell you about in business school (or software development, for that matter).
Most businesses don't have an abstract pattern or structure that
describes their business processes.
+ Most software developers don't know how to separate business and
technical logic.
= This often results in hard-coding half-understood business logic ...
and it's a recipe for disaster when companies try to scale.
Join us on Tues, December 6, as software engineer & architect Tim Kleier leads us through an interactive session where we'll simulate an evolving e-commerce business.
- Together, we'll adapt code to changes in business requirements and feel the acute pain of mixing technical concerns with problematic business logic.
- Then we'll discuss how to avoid these traps ... and the answers might surprise you!
The presentation will start at 6:00pm with Q&A to follow. RSVP today!
MORE ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:
Tim Kleier is a software engineer & architect at Upgrade Solutions, his consultancy business that helps organizations navigate the technical challenges of scaling software.
His software experience spans small businesses, academic institutions, government agencies and enterprises. He works with code and coders during the day, and at night you'll find him hanging with his wife and four kids, running or entrepreneuring.
If you'd like to "meet" Tim before our Meetup, you can! Last year, he co-presented at Fort Collins Startup Week with FCIP's co-founder Ron Zasadzinski.
► Watch Tim present during their talk "Taming Technology: How To Effectively Navigate The Many Technology Decisions Of A Startup."

Does the phrase, "Lights! Camera! Action!" make you want to pull the covers over your head and hide from that intimidating "record" button?
If so, then it's probably a safe bet that video hasn't made its way into your marketing strategy ... yet. And you (and your brand) could be missing out on the incredible benefits that video has to offer.
Join us on Tues, January 17, as video editor Ayelet Golz schools us on video marketing basics, busts the most common myths that serve as barriers to making videos, and equips you (yes, YOU!) for getting behind (or in front of) the camera.
The presentation will start at 6:00pm with Q&A to follow. RSVP today!
MORE ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:
Imaginative and strategic in equal measures, Ayelet (pronounced “I yell it”) loves creating visual storytelling strategies to help people and brands incorporate videos into their marketing strategies.
After working in digital marketing for more than 14 years, Ayelet started Ayelet Golz Video Editing so she could continue diving deep into her clients' goals while channeling her creative energy into making custom videos.
When she's not in her video editing studio, Ayelet likes to keep her hands moving by sewing her own clothes and baking artisan bread and treats. She also spends as much time as possible (usually in nature) with her husband, daughter, pup Pepper and feline Papaya.
