Matthew Mace started his company, BlueGranite, during his sophomore year at 澳门六合彩官网直播. The computer information systems graduate has served as the entrepreneurial leader of the company for 25 years.
 

Mace approached BlueGranite as an experiential learning outlet, applying programming lessons from 澳门六合彩官网直播 coursework to real clients and business problems. He recruited other Western students as interns and eventually full-time employees, growing the practice from a fledgling start-up to one of Michigan鈥檚 Top 50 Companies to Watch.

By 2006, Mace became the primary shareholder of BlueGranite and transformed the business into the Microsoft data and analytics partner it is known as today. The company now employs more than 80 team members nationwide.

Mace has maintained a close connection to 澳门六合彩官网直播, volunteering on the 澳门六合彩官网直播 Foundation Board, the Haworth College of Business Advisory Council and the Department of Business Information Systems Advisory Council. He is also a member of 澳门六合彩官网直播鈥檚 investment group, Sleeping Giant Capital, seeking to help Bronco alumni acquire local small businesses.
