Yet again, KMM Author of MidMarketMaven, Devin Thorpe, was featured in the news this week (he has been a busy news contributor of late). Today on NPR’s Salt Lake City, UT’s affiliate radio station, KPCW, Devin was a guest participant in KPCW’s Midday Metro Report radio show. The show featured a discussion about the MountainWest Capital Utah Top 100 program, which recognizes the 100 fastest-growing companies in Utah.

Devin is the founder and Managing Director of the Thorpe Capital Group, LLC, an investment banking firm based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Thorpe Capital Group is a previous winner of the MountainWest’s Top 100 award. Devin was also highlighted in a press release we distributed earlier this year, and has been authoring MidMarketMaven since Jan 2006.

The MountainWest Capital Network, the organizer of the Utah 100 program, is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is dedicated to the flow of financial, entrepreneurial and intellectual capital.  Founded in 1983, the organization's membership has become so vital to Utah's deal economy that 90% of the transactions reported in the organization's Deal Flow report include a MountainWest Capital Group member as one of the parties to the transaction. Other past winners of the Utah 100 program recognition include Overstock.com, Zions Bancorporation, Questar, USANA and Altiris.

We’re thrilled that Devin continues to be recognized in the media as the mid-cap finance expert that he is. Devin, we’re going to have to buy you a bigger fishing hat soon!
