Club IT is a night club located in the downtown area of Atlanta, Georgia. The club is owned by Lisa Tejada and Ruben Keys. The two of them had a dream of opening a night club and with the Business Administration Degrees it became possible.

Every business should have information technology resources in order to have a successful business. The first thing I would do would be to upgrade their computer hardware and internet.
