Invene is a healthcare software company located at 6401 Eldorado Parkway just north of Dallas in McKinney. This company develops custom software for healthcare clients. They were established two years ago.
Most of the employees at Invene are 32 years old and younger. According to PR Web, in this industry, where it is all based on new and current technology, it is beneficial to have a team of young professionals where they are familiar and experienced with technology.
Invene has declined all offers for capital investments and continues to gear towards a natural scale to success while making their clients the company’s primary focus. According to a press release, “The company has taken no outside investment capital, yet it’s adding one to two employees per month. It has doubled in size during 2021 while remaining profitable, and now it has added a COO years before most companies would make that decision.”
Killeen Daily Herald talks about Invene by stating, “This is bound to be a young team with fresh ideas and innovative thinking,” which is “exactly the skills that the healthcare industry desperately seeks, and is finding with Invene.”
Within the next five years, Invene plans on adding 500 employees, where they will be working from home using technology like Zoom, Slack, Google, Calendly, and Teams to communicate and execute plans.
Although the founder and CEO of Invene, James Griffin, has a team of young employees, he knew that adding a Chief Operating Officer who is well experienced in technology startups would guide the company to be a successful business.
James Griffin was sixteen years old when he started working towards his BS in Computer Science. He received a full-ride academic scholarship to the University of Texas. According to Invene’s website, Griffin is a “Forbes Next 1000, National OZY Genius Award Winner, and North Texas 25 Under 25 recipient.”
Today, the company announced that Ted Lindsley is a veteran technology executive and now holds the role of Chief Operating Officer at Invene. Lindsley’s duties within this role will be guiding and overseeing the strategic planning, bringing new software to the market, and enhancing the company’s growth trajectory. He also will be the one who hires future employees that best fit their company and the way it’s rapidly growing.
Lindsley spent thirteen years searching for the right talent and put together teams to aid in technology startups. He built these teams in Silicon Valley and Dallas. After that time, he gained a massive background of expertise for the past twenty years in creating technology startups that have proven successful. He has experience integrating “software, web and cloud architecture, hardware, machine learning, AI, robotics, and embedded systems.”
CEO James Griffin stated, “I’m thrilled to welcome Ted Lindsley to the team as our new COO,” and added, “Ted is a serial startup veteran who has built and sold multiple technology companies as a Founder/CEO. This gives him a unique perspective on our business and how to avoid scaling mistakes. By leveraging his experience early in our growth curve, Invene can better position to be a long-term leader in custom healthcare software.”
Ted Lindsley said, “Invene is positioning for rapid growth over the next five years and I’m excited to be a part of that.” He continued by stating, “Many of our competitors tout 20+ years of healthcare experience, mired in outdated thinking, and their solutions reflect this. We’re lucky not to have that problem. I’m surrounded by a motivated team of young professionals who grew up in a socially networked, app/cloud/phone-connected world. Who better to transform healthcare? Our clients want an engaging user experience with feature-rich solutions to positively impact their bottom line. Healthcare automation is a lot more than just coding software and Invene uniquely understands this.”
Invene mentions that “HL7, HIPAA, HITRUST, FHIR, EMR, EHR, and PHI are part of our everyday vocabulary, creating web and mobile apps to increase revenue, data integrations to enhance reporting, and machine learning to improve operations. We help our clients build competitive advantages using technologies like JavaScript, C#, Microsoft Azure, SQL, and many more. Our specialty is taking a client’s vision and turning it into a reality: ‘You Dream it. We Develop it. You Own it’ is our mantra. We are entirely USA-based with no nearshore or offshore team members.
