Cincom has always had sense of place and of home. In fact, the name Cincom is derived from “Cincinnati,” the hometown of CEO Tom Nies and where Cincom offices have been located from day one. That feeling compels us to “give forward” to the communities where we operate in a number of different ways.
To encourage rising entrepreneurs, Cincom created the Cincom: Encouraging Entrepreneurship (CEE) Program. Through the CEE initiative, Cincom joins forces with educational institutions and other non-profit organizations to support and encourage entrepreneurial activity throughout the world by donating software, services and resources to assist aspiring entrepreneurs, as well as providing mentoring and interning opportunities.
Some Cincom Community Service programs include:
The University Grant Program donates Cincom software to universities for educational study and real-world modeling. Recipients include Northern Kentucky University and the Ohio University College of Business.
Sponsorship of University MBA Plan Competitions where teams of master of business administration students from universities throughout the United States compete to win cash prizes.
Sponsorship of a Center for the Study of the Presidency Fellowship. The University of Cincinnati Fellowship is named for Cincom and Cincom CEO Tom Nies. The Center brings together experts from government, academia and the corporate world on key issues facing the Presidency.
