Steve Spencer’s Summary

“One of the state's hottest and brightest business leaders under the age of 40”
Utah Business Magazine

“One of the 100 most likely people to lead a successful venture in Utah within the next few years.”
vSpring Capital

As something of an entrepreneurial junkie, I have seen several companies from inception through successful exits. My last several company involvements were:

- dotOne, where as CTO, I and the management team sold the company for $52m dollars.

- Mediaport, where I severed as CTO, my team and I were the winners of the 2002 Utah State Entrepreneurial Challenge, and the company was well funded as I moved on to found my next venture:

- Twelve Horses, where as President and CTO my partners and I made the company one of the “Top 30 Innovative Companies in Utah” as stated by Utah Business Magazine (2009), Technology Company of the Year” by the Technology Business Alliance of Nevada (2007), and “Small Business of the Year” by the Economic Development Authority of Western Nevada (2005).

Most recently we successfully merged Twelve Horses into One to One Interactive in 2009, where I currently serve as SVP of Strategic Technologies, and the Director of One to One for the Western United States.

In my various capacities in public and private companies, I have developed and negotiated partnerships and architected large scale technology solutions for and with such companies as Premier Global Services, MCI Worldcom, Sprint, Pitney Bowes, Computer Associates, Qwest and Microsoft.

I have always been actively involved technology community here in Utah, with involvement in such organizations as Utah Technology Council (UTC), Utah Entrepreneurs Organization (EO), and where I serve on the Board for the Westminster College Institute for New Enterprise. I have been a business plan judge and mentor at many Funding Universe events, Westminster College business plan competitions, and for multiple top 10 teams in the Utah Entrepreneurial Challenge.
