A lot of the computers in the world are inside companies, needless to say. One reason they are not all running GridRepublic is that they don't know about it. So please help us get the word out. Let's discuss; some ideas are also posted below.

Make a proposal

Make a proposal to management -- if you're at a big company, make a proposal to the head of corporate citizenship, corporate responsibility, social responsibility, or whatever they call it at your company. If you're at a smaller company, maybe you can walk right in and talk to the boss. Or maybe you are the boss...

When presenting, include projects that align with the company values and social goals (particularly where the company has an explicitly stated philanthropic agenda).

We'll post a draft powerpoint shortly that you can use as a basis for your pitch.

Network Installs

Your company might like to know that it is possible do to batch installations of GridRepublic across a network.

If you want a script for this please contact us at help{}gridrepublic.org. (Please be sure you have permission to install on any machine you might add, or we're all in for a world of trouble.)
