Solugenix was founded in 1969 by T. Russell Shields. It was known then as Shields Enterprises Incorporated, and later as SEI Information technology. Through the years, the IT consulting business helped generate ground-breaking, industry-defining solutions. Before cell phones even became known to the general public, we developed the first cell phone billing systems. Our systems are in the DNA of most cell phone billing systems today. Before anyone believed in the practicality of it, we developed a comprehensive database and tools for geographic navigation. Our mapping and routing applications were the first to be deployed on the Internet - even before the web came into vogue.

Most mapping and routing solutions on the web today - including Yahoo Maps and Mapquest - have some code and data that we developed in the 1990's. We also pioneered a structured approach to technology support for the quick service restaurant industry in the 1980's, when that industry was used to fragmented, spotty support.

Today, all these solutions are thriving as independent companies or parts of industry. Solugenix continues this spirit of innovation into the new century by leading the industry with innovative, important solutions for the changing times: Compliance issues for the Financial Services industry and Offshore Outsourcing issues for US corporations.

In a company-wide name contest, Solugenix employees chose the new name Solugenix to emphasize our relentless focus on generating solutions that are relevant and pioneering.
