Client Showcase

Matchio is a one-of-a-kind marketplace- created by Bradley students for Bradley students-that matches buyers with sellers. The new Web site was launched on Friday, April 23. Already there are 107 books for sale, 62 books needed for next semester and 25 matches.

Through its technical development, Matchio allows the buying and selling of products and services on campuses through one of a kind classified marketplace that facilitates the peer to peer matching of items to sell at the end of the academic school year.

Through the use of preferred social devices, such as SMS texts, Facebook, and Twitter, U-Exchange will offer the customers the core benefit of a laser focus attention to each user's individual needs and result in pure simplicity in attaining the goods on campus.

As last year's winners of the Project Springboard competition they are excited to have officially launched. Learn more here.

Why Peoria

"Best Places To Launch a Small Business"

CNN Money ranked Peoria fifth among midsize metro areas as one of the best places to launch a small business.

The Bradley Technology Commercialization Center was mentioned as a resource to help small companies access capital.

The article also profiles Intellihot's Sridhar Deivasgamani. He feels "Peoria has a fairly close-knit community that's accepting of new folks and new ideas. In the past 10 years, the town has gone a long way to help attract people to this region."
