The Illinois Small Business Development Center at Governors State
University (“SBDC – GSU”) presented its annual Veteran’s Entrepreneurial Boot
Camp on November 13, supported by a significant donation of sound equipment by
AmpliVox Sound Systems. AmpliVox donated portable PA systems valued at
approximately $10,000, which carried the presentations of business experts with
perfect clarity to over 150 attendees. The Boot Camp, offered free of charge to
veterans, provided a full day of training sessions on business ownership as
well as networking opportunities.
AmpliVox’s donation included its SW800 Titan Wireless
Portable PA and SW915 Digital Audio Travel Partner. Both of these systems
provide versatile, portable sound amplification with Bluetooth® streaming capability,
rechargeable batteries, wireless mics, and built-in 16 channel UHF receivers.
The SW800 includes a 100W amplifier to cover audiences of up to 2500 in rooms
up to 10,000 square feet; the more powerful 250W amplifier on the SW915 fills
rooms up to 25,000 square feet or audiences up to 7500. The equipment will be
heavily used in future educational programs at the SBDC-GSU, including
workshops, seminars, and other programs that promote small business and
entrepreneurship.
“Our new sound equipment from AmpliVox will be incredibly
useful to us for years to come,” noted Priscilla Cordero, SBDC—GSU Director.
“Supporting veterans and other small business owners through education is a
central part of our mission, and these sound systems make our programs more
effective and enjoyable for all our attendees. We are very grateful to AmpliVox
for its generous support.”
AmpliVox CEO Don Roth is proud to be associated with
SBDC—GSU for its commitment to promoting veterans and other worthy groups. “I
was impressed by the depth of educational opportunity that SBDC—GSU offers,
completely free of charge to veterans,” commented Roth. “AmpliVox’s products
are a perfect match for the wide variety of programs they sponsor, and we’re
glad to stand with them as they work to promote the strength of small business
in Illinois.”
