News RIM jobs coming to Atlanta!
Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Fri, Oct 23, 2009 at 2:32 PM
Atlanta Business Chronicle reporter and mega-Twitterer Urvaksh Karkaria has more good news from Research in Motion, the company that makes the BlackBerry phone:
Research in Motion investing $300M in Atlanta - Jim Balsillie. More details on his talk in upcoming @Atlantech post.#TAG
In May, Karkaria reported the Canadian tech giant's plans for 200 RIM jobs in Alpharetta. Does the $300 million investment Karkaria reports today mean we can expect even more RIM jobs? Let's hope so. With the metro Atlanta unemployment rate at 10.5 percent, there are plenty of people around here who could use a good RIM job.
Details forthcoming on Urvaksh's AtlanTech blog.
