Montana State University’s software factory was established in January 2015. The idea for a software factory in Montana grew from a collaboration with Dr. Jurgen Munch at the University of Helsinki.

The Software Factory focuses on developing software in modern development environments, with the capability to deliver concrete products in collaboration with public, non-profit, and private sector companies. It is a platform that provides the necessary processes and environment to deliver real products. It is about learning, sharing and growing entrepreneurial ideas that span the causal chain −from inception to deployment.
