Social Venture Partners Rhode Island is delighted to debut Phase I of its new and improved website, designed and developed by Jennifer O'Neil and Craig Barber of Taryx (www.taryx.com). This new site could not have been launched but for the help of the following people:

• Andrew Gilmartin who expertly managed the project on a pro bono basis and helped us select an appropriate web developer;
• Jeanne Albrektson, who designed a beautiful new color palette and logo for us (again, on a pro bono basis) to update our "look and feel";
• Ron Cowie for taking wonderful headshots for the site;
• Jen Hetzel Silbert, Elaine Drake, Sally Johnson and Kathy Rumsey for compiling and editing information from our Partners and Investees.

Look for additional enhancements to the site during Phase II, including a potentially national re-launch of our former Social Enterprise Marketplace.
