Thetus on a Map
November 19, 2011
Thetus Corporation and its CEO Danielle Forsyth have been given special attention in Green Data Center Blog’s “Map of Portland Startups, Tech Wizards of the Silicon Forest.” Thetus elevates information management with facets like predictive modeling, outcome evaluation, and semantic knowledge modeling. The company was incorporated in 2003, and released its flagship product Savanna in 2010.
Blogger Dave Ohara writes,
Danielle Forsyth likes to say that Thetus Corporation makes Internet software for ‘people who don’t know what they don’t know.’
“That Rumsfeldian phrase is fitting: Few people in Portland have any idea that a woman CEO—a rare sight on the tech landscape—is helming one of the city’s fastest-growing software startups, a company that’s been profitable for five years mostly thanks to Federal government contracts.
Having a woman at the helm certainly helps a tech firm stand out. Of course, a sound philosophy and a quality product don’t hurt, either. Note that Thetus does not do high profile marketing, but I have been told that the company is doing well in the military and defense markets.
