The Need Map Project

Thursday, December 23rd, 2010

Our team at eROI came up with a really cool concept called The Need Map project to make a difference in our own backyard. I love that this is a hyper-local effort that is focused on filling gaps that exist, instead of re-inventing the wheel.

To all the folks who are driving this effort, thank you thank you. This is just the beginning of helping the community for the long term, not just a holiday effort. Looking forward to seeing this seed germinate. Please go to www.needmap.com to give us your ideas.

KillROI Adventures thru Client Eyes

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

KillROI has been a busy robot, checking out the scenes that Portland has to offer.  Thanks to Nancy’s creative use of her camera and for sending us the hilarious photos, we are able to share those adventures with you.  Here is what Nancy had to say about KillROI’s adventures:

We’ve had a lot of fun touring around Old Town Chinatown, KillROI’s home (and mine).

From a First Thursday event at ANKA Gallery, to the Steel Bridge and the Portland Classical Chinese Garden, KillROI took it all in stride.

On a tour of the Central Library’s eco-roof, KillROI proved to have no fear of heights, and on a snowshoe trek to Mt. Hood’s Trillium Lake, KillROI conquered a mountain of snow.

My personal favorite is the “where’s waldo” version–the hood of an art car. Where next?  Only the Shadow knows . . . .

Thanks again Nancy and we look forward to what lies ahead for our good friend KillROI!

PDC Old Town / Chinatown Video Features eROI

Friday, May 2nd, 2008

The PDC (Portland Development Commission) worked with the Portland Classical Chinese Garden to create this video to show in several cities throughout China with the intent of recruiting more Chinese businesses to move into Old Town/Chinatown.

eROI has been in Old Town / Chinatown for the past 6 months and we’ve seen a dozen other software companies and creative agencies move into the neighborhood. We’re big fans.
