30 Years of Stimulus Technologies: A Milestone Worth Celebrating

Today, July 21, marks a major milestone—Stimulus Technologies turns 30.

That’s three decades of growth, grit, service, and transformation. From humble beginnings in a Las Vegas garage to becoming a trusted technology partner serving businesses in five states, this moment isn’t just about longevity—it’s about the people, values, and determination that made it all possible.

From Startup to Service Leader

In 1995, a 17-year-old named Nathan Whittacre saw opportunity in a challenge. After the small computer store where he worked shut down, he convinced his family to help him start a new business. Together with his brother Brett and their dad, they launched what would eventually become Stimulus Technologies. What started as late nights assembling computers in a garage has grown into a multi-state MSP and IT service provider supporting thousands of customers with managed IT, VoIP, internet, and data center services.

Through every phase of growth—from adding employees to acquiring other providers—Stimulus has remained grounded in its core values: people first, service always, and never backing down from a challenge.

A Special Podcast to Mark the Occasion

To celebrate this anniversary, we’re kicking off a series of special Stimulus Tech Talk podcast episodes—and it starts with a personal reflection from our founder and CEO.

In Episode 75, Nathan shares what it really takes to build and sustain a company for 30 years, including:

  • Stories from those early garage days
  • Overcoming challenges like the dot-com crash, Great Recession, and COVID-19
  • Lessons learned about leadership, letting go, and evolving as a business owner
  • Why service—not just tech—has always been our greatest strength

“Stimulus started as a family business, and that sense of connection still defines who we are,” says Nathan. “After 30 years, we’re proud of what we’ve built—and more committed than ever to helping businesses thrive through reliable, people-first technology.”
