Thanks Ariam, I have a child with Autism so this is very interesting to me and I also helped found the largest support group in the Washington DC area. I have done grants for curriculum to teach children with autism to swim with Autism Speaks and I can talk intelligently about AT/PECS. We also just had our keynote from Cliff Schmidt at Amplio which has some crossover. Anyway, enough about me, I'd like to setup a call, nothing long and talk about our incubator and how we work/what we do.
