Duluth, Minnesota – Aspis, a fast-growing Kansas City-based cybersecurity firm, is opening its second location in downtown Duluth in early June 2022. The company which started in 2019 has grown revenues an average of 450% in its first few years, currently has 15 employees in Kansas City, Duluth, and Washington, DC, and is planning on doubling revenue by the end of the year. Aspis specializes in providing cybersecurity services for organizations of all sizes including small to mid-sized businesses; Fortune 500 enterprises; and local, state, and federal government Entities.
To celebrate the opening of their Duluth location, Aspis is hosting an open house and ribbon cutting on June 9th. The open house and ribbon cutting will be held at their new office at 315 W 1st Street, Suite 204, from 2-4 pm with the ribbon cutting administered by the Duluth Chamber of Commerce at 3 pm. During the open house, Aspis will be giving away a small business cybersecurity package worth over $4,600 to a lucky small business. Refreshments will be served and all are welcome.
“We are so excited to bring our services to this beautiful city. As a serial entrepreneur myself, one of my biggest worries was making sure I was protected online as a business. Our team at Aspis provides solutions that can drastically reduce the chance of getting cyber-attacked,” stated Aspis’ Operations Supervisor Andrew. In October of 2020 Aspis hired its first Duluth employee and has since grown to 3 employees in Duluth. Aspis is planning to hire 3 more by the end of July.
