It was one of those days again where you open the pages of the business section of the Star Tribune and see lots of news about Eden Prairie businesses. Here’s a sample:
MTS is Profitable

This is Chip Emery. Mr. Emery is the CEO of MTS. MTS is a great Eden Prairie company. I can see their offices from my office. Neal St. Anthony did a good story today in the Star Tribune on MTS and its emerging profitability. He called them the “poster child for the jobless recovery”, among other things. I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Emery last year and to tour MTS with him. It is a very interesting company. Read St. Anothony’s story for more.
SurModics

In the same story in which St. Anthony talks about MTS he also discusses another Eden Prairie company – SurModics. He discusses their current stock price and Wall Street’s projections for them for this year.
Three other “honorable mentions” in today’s business section go to:
PPT Vision

PPT Vision make high speed cameras and industrial production monitoring equipment. I’ve toured their plant here in Eden Prairie. It is amazing. They inked an expansion of a contract they had with a European manfuacturer.
TELS Corp. – Completed a private placement of stock to gain new working capital to expand one of their subsidiaries.
NVE Corp. - Just got a new contract with the Defense Department to work on bio-magnetic interfacing concepts.
We’ve got a great business community here!
