Startups

Gimigo Security startup Gimigo was founded in Minneapolis, but has recently relocated to Seattle, WA, according to founder Lukas Dickie.

Focused on enabling consumers to securely manage and share personal information, Gimigo raised an unknown amount of initial  funding in 2008, yet for Dickie, “the investment climate in Minnesota was sailing like without wind” when it came time for a second round.

“An opportunity opened up on the west coast which will allow us to achieve our goals. Never quit.  Never follow.  Change is the only constant.”

    Not the first and certainly not the last tech start-up to leave Minnesota due in part to the cold funding climate. The funding environment in Minnesota isn't great and it does not look like things are improving.  This fact is very frustrating due to the amount of "old money" in the area. There is as always lots of talk but nothing is done to help things move forward.

  • just have to go where you're supported ;)
