GAAN Technologies
Inc. was formed January 1, 2000. The plan was simple. Do
something that was enjoyable, and do it at a price that was fair to both
parties. To this date, we still strive for this. Over the years, we have
gotten the opportunity to work with some wonderful people and we're glad
to say we are still doing what we planned on doing over 11 years ago.
GAAN.... what does that mean? GAAN is a
Dutch word meaning to Go.... While that was considered when
the company was named, it really didn't have anything to do with its
origin. GAAN stands for G.T., Andrew, Adam and Nancy.
I thought about names like Lexington's IT Company, LEXIT, and other such
names. However, I just liked the name GAAN, and while dreaming as
every business owner does, I hoped one day GAAN would be like XEROX, a
name that meant computer support, like XEROX mean copies. After
doing this for a while, I have modified my hope. Today I would
hope that GAAN means, "Your Company's IT Department".
A Personal Note for those who are interested:
My name is G.T. Smith and I'm the owner of GAAN
Technologies Inc. When the company was formed, my sons were
6 and 4. Andrew and Adam. I'm proud to say that both
of them have worked with me on some projects, and maybe one day they
will work beside me. My wife Nancy made GAAN possible, she has
been a public school teacher for the past 26 years, and without her
support I don't know if GAAN would have ever been considered.
Thanks for taking the time to look a little deeper at
GAAN Technologies Inc, and part of what's behind it. I get to work
with some great people, and our employees make GAAN what it is. Send me
an email and tell me what you think. I'd love to here your
opinions.
