OUR HISTORY

Risetime was founded in 1984. Our efforts originally focused on supplying highly technical consulting, engineering design, and programming services for the industrial, manufacturing, and biomedical industries. Between 1984 and 1990, Risetime developed and designed a wide array of successful medical and industrial devices. During the 1990s, Risetime began offering software applications and web development solutions. Risetime still focuses on project-based development teams working with clients to build mission-critical solutions in all major IT areas.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How did you get your name, Risetime?

Much of our early work was in electrical engineering services. In digital electronics, when describing a signal transitioning from low to high, ‘rise time’ refers to the time it takes to make that transition.  When we incorporated, the average computer ran at 4 million operations per second.  Today modern PCs run 1,000 times faster!  This means that the ‘rise time’ needs to be 1,000 times faster as well.  In the 1980s, it was impossible to predict how far things would evolve.  Truly spectacular! The name has stayed with the firm throughout the years as a reflection of our roots.
