A humble group of Minnesota Software / IT CEOs have come together to reconstitute the local software industry and ‘spark a movement to make Minnesota’s software economy rank among the most vibrant and respected in the nation.’
The Minnesota Emerging Software Advisory, aka MESA, has been in the works since 2009 and spent 2010 selecting and supporting beta portfolio companies. “We wanted to make sure that we have some success stories and proven results before telling the world what we’re all about,” says founding mentor and spokesman Kevin Spanbauer, a search specialist by trade. “We’re starting out small, although our vision is to put 50 companies through the mentorship program over the next five years.”
