Tech trend brings growth for start-up

When Jim Prekop joined TeraMedica Healthcare Technology as president and CEO in 2005, the Wauwatosa company's investors asked him first to determine whether closing the start-up would be the best course. The company opted to push ahead, and its investors now may be rewarded for their patience as the market recognizes the need for TeraMedica's software. TeraMedica sells software for managing the millions of diagnostic images stored throughout health care systems. (JOURNAL SENTINEL, 10/19)
