“In Central Massachusetts, thousands of searches are done everyday as people look for information on a particular restaurant or entertainment venue,” said Luke M. Vaillancourt, founder of WorcesterScene.com. “At WorcesterScene, we track, publish and maintain the most accurate listing, making it easier for the public to find the information they need. With this partnership, we will more easily be able to provide that information to visitors of WorcesterMass.org,” he added. “This new partnership shifts the burden of maintaining the directory from the City to our organization and since we are donating our technology as good faith to the city, it eliminates any additional strain on government resources. Plus, we have the internal team to continually update our directory, ensuring it remains up-to-date and useful as people in and around Worcester make their entertainment and dining plans,” Vaillancourt added.
“The dining and entertainment industry is critical to the economy of Worcester so when this opportunity arose, we were quick to sign on,” said Erin Williams, Cultural Development Officer. “This partnership allows us to continue to develop and promote important creative economy initiatives like our WOO Card program. The directory WorcesterScene has developed for us is tailored to promote creative industries and encourage the consumer to live, learn, work and play in Worcester County,” said Williams.
“Worcester has seen amazing growth the past few years and the current environment is prime for encouraging even more growth,” said Vaillancourt, “We believe WorcesterScene’s partnership with the City will help continue to fuel that growth,” he added.
