South Park L.A: So Cal’s Sillicon Valley & Ayala Park: Asia’s Silicon Valley

-posted by martin cavanaugh porter

South Park L.A is a microcosm of Silicon Valley: But better. Here’s why- The brilliance and boldness, the ‘newness’ and vigor of ideas that flowed from that great hotbed of ingenuity which helped the economies of the world flourish-exists in South Park, within a six block geographical zone.

And more: It is youth, brilliance and glitter matched with (some)seasoned experience (half those folks caused this recession-(it’s called ‘failing upwards and I still think these pigs at the trough should be called to account) ‘the other half have much  wisdom to offer: Just North of our great 90015 incubator that is South Park are the institutions that repose in them many men and women with experience and the financial expertise to assist the tech-creative-manufacturing-design hotbed that is South Park, L.A.

Even better: Abroad, in South East Asia, in the most unlikely places one might think, are other hotbeds of brilliance- Ayala Tech Park in the Philippines, and VC’s spread out like fans on a spinning fan looking for excellence, seeking alliances, and investing in strategic partnerships. Our company,my team, Forbes-South Park Dev Group (mcporter@flvllc.com) is working with one of the key players in that VC fan for two reasons:

To build the dream that is M Motors- a dream that convention and retrograde, formulaic in-the-box thinking will never destroy.

To work to form a strategic partnership with them, providing a pipeline of projects from South Park, viable to finance for expansion and growth purposes.

 It is with alacrity and with a renewed sense of purpose that I find myself forever taken by South Park and it’s pioneers-and it is my mission and one of the core purposes of my life to move South Park L.A’s brilliant, bright, entrepreneurs into the spotlight of international expansion, of better, brighter days.

tough to find a good biz manager-ethical, bright, in-tune, and au-courant.

downtown l.a biz can’t directly ‘sponsor’ a biz manager, but we can tell you that the founders (martin cavanaugh porter III and brett h tomich) of Forbes Legacy Ventures LLC and The South Park Development Group can tell you we’ve run across a highly vitalized, bright, forward thinking lady with gusto and smarts and the most important component of a good business-person: the power of intent, intense listening and important, meaningful critique.

we’ll be talking more about her in the days to follow-as FLV LLC/The South Park Dev Group engages with her, learns from her, and, hopefully works with her.

think: mentor, friend, advisor-picture: a business advisor who won’t take you down the prickly path of unsurety.
