Qstride expands Detroit office to 8 people in first year

Qstride is looking for a bigger office in downtown Detroit a year after the Troy-based software firm opened a satellite office in the Chrysler House.

Qstride has grown its Motor City office from five people to eight over the last year, and it has eyes on a bigger presence in the Central Business District.

"We're exploring additional options in Bedrock’s property portfolio," says Shane Gianino, CEO of Qstride. He adds that a move could happen within the next 90 days.

"We want to have our corporate headquarters located here," Gianino says. "We want to have our sales and marketing staff here, and a call center here."

Qstride specializes in business intelligence and analytics services that integrate with its customer's IT systems. The 20-month-old firm has clients across the U.S. and it now employs 22 people. Gianino expects the downtown Detroit office to grow to 15 people within the next year.
