"Cameron and his partner George Horhota are now betting on with the launch of SuiteWorks a high-tech 120-workstation telework centre to be built in the south end of Barrie and slated for opening next summer.Modeled on telework centres in the Washington D.C. area, SuiteWorks will offer work stations and private offices equipped with high-tech systems including Voice Over IP and interactive white boards that will keep workers in touch with their Toronto offices.While the work stations at the telework centres in the Washington area are leased by government agencies that don't have enough office space in the city centre, SuiteWorks is aimed at the private sector."
