Emcien is Cool

Emcien has been recognized as one of Gartner’s Cool Vendors in SCM and ERP for 2008. According to Gartner Emcien is cool because "Optimization is no longer just being used for transportation, inventory and production planning; it can also be used in innovative ways, such as determining the best mix of options an enterprise should offer for a configured product."

Emcien’s innovation originated when Dr. Roy Marsten, leading computational optimization expert, solved a tough problem for a leading auto manufacturer when a professor at Georgia Tech in the 1990s.  Emcien was founded a decade later in 2002.  Today Emcien is dedicated to solving complexity problems in the discrete
manufacturing industry.  Towards this end they offer a unique software solution to help leading manufacturing companies deal with unrelenting pressure to reduce costs in their manufacturing and supply chain operations, that yields significant bottom line savings to clients while giving them a competitive advantage with customers.

Radhika Subramanian and Dr. Marsten will also be honored when Emcien graduates from ATDC this Thursday during our Entrepreneurs Showcase.  Please join us if you can.

Entrepreneurs Showcase

Mark your calendars for the afternoon of May 15 and plan to meet the entrepreneurs who are leading Georgia’s best emerging technology companies at ATDC’s annual Entrepreneurs Showcase. At the event, you will:

• See demonstrations from over forty ATDC fast-growth companies,
• Talk with the entrepreneurs leading those firms,
• Hear updates on the ATDC and its related programs, and
• Network with the area’s technology leaders.

We will post more details in late April, but please hold that date now so you won’t miss out on this important event.

More information about ATDC’s member companies is here.

Showcase Podcast

Michael Blake and Scott Burkett from the Startup Lounge were gracious enough to attend the Billon Dollar Celebration and put together a podcast.
