Summary:

At the GEDC AGM held on April 29th, 2009, the main focus was the question ‘Is Greenstone Investment Ready?’. It was addressed in the form of presentations by Renée Bélisle and Michael Dunlop, with a specific focus on the use of the GEDC website. Detailed instructions on how to access Renée Bélisle’s results for the Commercial Land Asset Inventory and Satellite Imagery projects by using the GEDC website were given. There was also a presentation by Michael Dunlop, covering MNDM’s Northern Communities Investment Readiness Program (NCIR), which was launched in March 2006. The article discusses the advantages and the use of the GEDC website in regards to clients and potential investors in this technological world where ‘instant gratification’ is expected. It provides explanations for the potential use of the website, and how it can provide useful information to clients and investors.
