The MPOWER Story: Humble Beginnings

By Claire Almand | In In The News | 21 March 2017 | Updated on: November 18th, 2025

One idea. Two people. Three years in the making.

Long before we had a thriving business, multiple offices, or even employees, we had passion, drive, and most importantly, a great idea. In honor of our third birthday on April 1, 2017, we are sharing our origin story from the perspective of Mike Davis, our CTO and co-founder. We are thrilled by how far we’ve come, and are excited for what the future has in store! Cheers!

    Happy Birthday Mpower.
    Thank you for bringing the idea into a business. It was hard for me to find a co-signer but your business model is different. I am grateful.
