Eugene Software
Eugene Software Solutions is a custom software services provider with a specific focus on start-ups and early stage companies. The company was founded in 2003 when the University of Oregon granted an exclusive license to ESS to develop and market a product called GradWeb that we had built from the ground up for the university. From those roots we have expanded to work with a number of corporate and non-profit companies across industries. We are a passionate group of individuals that can help clients with build vs. buy decisions, create IT budgets, create detailed technical project plans and implement those projects. In our spare time, we like to experiment with new technologies and "internal projects" that have ranged from algorithmic trading to building a curated news website using RSS feeds. Our founder Asif Suria is a rare talent in Information Technology, with equal abilities to gather and translate business and operational requirements, design systems, write code, and deliver training and technical support to satisfied clients. Asif has led technical design, development and implementation projects for a wide array of corporate and university clients across industries, including a database and analytics firm (SPINS) and an award winning seafood brokerage (CleanFish). In his free time Asif does independent investment research and develops toolsets for investment professionals in the areas of Merger Arbitrage and Insider Transactions. He has been a contributor to Seeking Alpha since 2005 and has been mentioned in various investment publications including TheStreet.com, Canada's Business News Network and AOL Daily Finance.
