Michael Shirzad, CEO of Concurrent Technologies Corp., a leading e-business solutions development and managed services company, will be featured on WMTR- AM’s (1250/1170) radio show, From Success to Significance. The program will be aired at 9 am on August 14, 2004.

Michael was selected to be a guest of the radio program to showcase Concurrent Technologies and its long-term, proven business model. Specifically, he will share why and how his company has enjoyed continuous success for over 18 years. With a focus on strategy development, software application delivery and solution management, Concurrent’s clients have spanned the Fortune 500 to those in the non-profit sector. In addition, the radio program will provide a forum to highlight the effort and resources Michael has donated to both local charity events and volunteer causes.

Sal Salvo, creator and host of the radio program explained, “The story of Michael and Concurrent Technologies is the quintessential example of the type of successful business person that From Success to Significance is looking to include on the show.”

Sal’s idea stemmed from his work in the area of family wealth counseling and his involvement as a consultant to charities. His firm, The Institute for Family Wealth CounselingSM, concentrates on assisting high-net worth individuals and families with their legacy planning. From his experience in working with entrepreneurs, he decided that one way to encourage all business owners to move from being a success to making a difference is to sponsor a radio program designed to achieve two things. The first is to offer a channel that spotlights the business accomplishments of fellow entrepreneurs. The second is to allow them to relate the positive role they play in donating their time and resources to the local community projects and causes at large through charitable activities.

“ I appreciate being chosen for the show and having the opportunity to build awareness about my company. In addition, it was very gratifying to describe our involvement in serving our communities,” Michael stated.
“ The From Success to Significance program and team provides a unique blend of creativity and professionalism. The radio show is a viable means to not only have a company benefit from exposure to a wide audience, but also share the value of what it means to give back,” Michael added.
