Spatial Information Solutions
Spatial Information Solutions is a start-up company based on several MSU technologies in the GeoResources Institute. The company has developed a series of highly specialized software tools that fill “critical gaps” in remote sensing and spatial information technology. The new software provides more accurate mapping data for such critical applications as 911 emergency response and disaster planning. End users will be able to mine information from large quantities of imagery taken over time.
TermiSys Technologies 
TermiSys, a research and development company based in Starkville, Mississippi, utilizes applied biology to develop and evaluate different products as they relate to preventing and/or controlling wood-destroying organisms. TermiSys is working to develop new and innovative systems that will protect residential and commercial structures from being inhabited by wood destroying fungi and insects.
Verari Systems
Verari Systems, Inc. began in 1996 in an MSU Incubator as MPI Software.MPI grew to over 40 employees and included offices in India and Bulgaria.It was acquired in 2004 and became the software division of Verari Systems, Inc. in Birmingham, Alabama.Verari Systems software division provides high-performance solutions for managing parallel and cluster computers.
YAGYM Technologies
YAGYM Technologies, Inc. was formed to develop a cotton yield monitor system based on the acoustic technology, technical design and algorithms for deriving the mass of material based on acoustical energy detected by the sensor. YAGYM Technology will develop a more commercially friendly version of the sensor and will deploy it in the field under a pilot basis. In 2005, a new prototype was constructed for field testing to validate its operational parameters.
