TECHdotMN: News about Minnesota Startups

About

The Nerdery wasn't built in a day. It started back in 2003 when our three founding programmers decided their idea just might be crazy enough to work! The steady accumulation of projects and web developers spiked our capabilities. When we coupled that with the growing demand from agency partners Nerdery Interactive Labs was born. Nerdery, it's a place and an activity. It's a great home for nerds and it's what we do all day. Leave it to nerds to be that efficient. Based on staff surveys of nearly 200 web pros who blur the line between work and play, The Nerdery ranked #1 on Mpls-St. Paul Business Journal's 2010 Best Places to Work list. A popularity contest? You bet. We’re also #6 on Minneapolis Star Tribune’s 2010 Top Workplace list. Founded by three programmers in 2003, The Nerdery has made the Inc 5000 and Biz Journal’s Fast 50 list of fast-growing privately owned companies for the past three years. The Nerdery was honored in 2010 with The Quality of Life Award and The Jefferson Award for corporate philanthropy/nerdy-deeds-done-dirt-cheap through our Nerdery Overnight Website Challenge, at which volunteers have donated a million dollars worth of web development services to 39 nonprofits.
