Crystal Ball Gazing: Register Now for Fremont Economic Forecast

by

If you do business in Fremont, you already have a vital interest in the state of Fremont’s economy, as well as that of the Bay Area region at large. In either case, there’s a free event coming up that you can’t afford to miss.

Annual Economic Forecast
The City of Fremont will present its annual forecast regarding Fremont’s economy on Thursday, February 3rd. Brad Kemp of Beacon Economics – a Marin County and Los Angeles-based firm that specializes in qualitative and quantitative macroeconomic research and analysis – will be the featured speaker.

Thursday, February 3, 9:00 – 10:30 a.m.
Fremont City Hall, City Council Chambers
3300 Capitol Avenue
Fremont, CA 94538

Kemp is Beacon’s director of regional research and is an expert on California’s labor markets. So, if you want to know what’s going on with the state’s high unemployment rates and prospective hiring, Kemp’s presentation should be particularly enlightening.

The event will be especially important for commercial and residential real estate professionals as well as for businesses located within or considering a move to Fremont. Even though it’s free, you can’t just show up. To register, e-mail Kim Marshall or call (510) 284-4020.

Employees Can Take BART and AC Transit to Fremont Business Park

by

With the high cost of living in the Bay Area, many local businesses have difficulty finding the employees they need. Housing costs are often steep, and transportation can be both expensive and full of frustrating commutes.

A Bus Stop Right at the Corner
That is – unless your business is located at Fremont Business Park at Christy Street. Every 30 minutes or so, you’ll notice that the 212 AC Transit bus stops at the corner of Albrae and Christy. In other words, it’s like Fremont Business Park has its own personal bus service.


Where is the Southbound 212 AC Transit Bus coming from you ask? The Stevenson BART station. On weekdays, buses leave the BART station every 30 minutes from 5:53 a.m. until 8:23 p.m., stopping in front of the Christy Street office complex a little over 30 minutes later. Similarly convenient schedules run northbound to take employees back to BART.

And best of all, you don’t need to worry about rushing to the bus stop or having to wait 30 minutes for the next bus. From your PDA or laptop, you can click this handy bus tracker to see in real time when the next AC Transit 212 bus will arrive right at Fremont Business Park’s door! we’ve included a link to this bus tracker on the web site as well.

Tap Into a Plentiful, Skilled Labor Pool
The convenient access provided by BART and AC Transit enables companies located at Fremont Business Park to tap into an enormous pool of highly educated and skilled labor up and down the entire East Bay – or even into San Francisco or the Tri-Valley area, wherever BART reaches.

When you add this to Fremont Business Park’s other location benefits: convenient to 1-880; easy access to the East Bay, South Bay or even the Peninsula by car; close to entertainment, dining and shopping at the Pacific Commons shopping center, literally a walk down the street; a choice of dealerships for car service a little over a mile away at Fremont Auto Mall – it’s hard to beat Fremont Business Park for helping you attract and keep quality employees.

Many TEAM Christy members have asked about a shuttle service to the BART station. Please answer our poll question (in the right margin of the blogsite) or let Lee know your thoughts.

Teamwork Pays Off for TEAM Christy Members

by

Fremont Business ParkTEAM Christy is a unique business acceleration and networking group, created exclusively for tenants at Fremont Business Park at Christy Street. Offered free of charge by the partnership that owns and manages the office complex, the group’s objective is to enable businesses located at Christy Street to compete more effectively in a challenging economic climate.

The group meets monthly, guided by a certified chairman from Vistage International, the world’s leading organization for CEOs. Vistage helps develop enhanced leadership and decision-making skills for attendees. But equally important, TEAM Christy members make connections at these meetings with other businesses down the hall or in the next building – and these connections can result in new business for one or both parties.

TEAM Christy Success Stories
Already, a number of businesses in Fremont Business Park are reporting that they’ve acquired new business from introductions made through the monthly TEAM Christy meetings:

• Codeminders – an IT boutique consulting team in 42840 Christy St., Suite 230, specializing in bleeding edge technologies – contracted with Uniforce Sales and Engineering in 42501 Albrae St., Suite 210 for essential engineering studies and the creation of a prototype in a new product area.

• Ontara Corporation – an IT service provider that specializes in server-based networks, network security and disaster planning and recovery – was selected to work with Fremont Business Park itself to implement the building’s high-speed, fiber optic Internet service for tenant subscribers.

• LNT Business Solutions – which provides a wide range of services including bookkeeping, income tax preparation, notary, and immigration services or related matters – has also won significant business from TEAM Christy members.
