The story of ProLinx began much like many other startup ideas in this world … solving a personal issue. And after talking with many of my friends and colleagues, most, if not all, of them could relate to the issue. Quite simply … although I am working in the same company and building with someone, does not mean that I KNOW them. But why not?? Taking out sleep time and the weekends, I probably spend more time with colleagues than I do with my own family. I SHOULD KNOW them. 

True, there are certain people that are extroverted enough and will make an effort to get to know everyone. I would love to say I am one of those, but I am not. I sum it all up like this … There are 300 people in the company location. I probably know half of them by face, and I would give them a “hello” nod if I saw them outside of work. Of those 150, I probably know about 50 by name. And of those 50, I know maybe a dozen well enough to go to lunch or coffee with them. Twelve out of 300 … FOUR PERCENT!

And after many months of testing and retesting our algorithm in real world scenarios, we are ready to bring this innovative solution to the market.
