(aired Mon 5/02/22)

Skuid is a tech startup here in Chattanooga that helps companies develop customer-friendly apps for its workers.

Ken McElrath launched Skuid - an acronym for Scalable Kit for User Interface Design - in 2013.

Last year, he stepped down as CEO to become chief strategy officer.

This year, Skuid made its first business acquisition: Inflight - a firm in Montreal, Canada.

I spoke with Ken McElrath a few weeks ago.
