A Company is Born – And Grows! 

 

Already having worked with eight companies by 1983, Andy and Prabha
decided that they needed leverage and so incorporated their company
on September 21 as ZS Group, Inc., soon renamed to ZS Associates, Inc.
They rented their first office, with 1700 square feet of space, at
820 Davis Street in Evanston. It was close to Kellogg’s campus to
enable the two to travel back and forth between their teaching duties
on campus and ZS’s new office, and also to provide easy access to
Northwestern’s computer center. As a hedge, Andy and Prabha subdivided
the new space and planned to sublet half.

 

They hired their first full-time employee, Nancy Murphy, as Office
Manager. She stayed with the firm for 10 years. More hires followed,
and soon they were employing 10 people full-time. As they continued
to hire new consultants, ZS outgrew the entire space in one year.

Confidence in the value of new ideas, combined with a realistic
approach to planning, laid the foundation for ZS’s growth.

To be continued....

这是很好的问题。ZS在美国有一个专门的模型研发中心，我们在运用的时候也会根据中国的实际情况建模或者进行调整。

上海Office没有租用很大的Computer Center，不过如果您在ZS工作，您可以很方便地利用全球ZS的资源，分散各地的ZSers就像在一个Office办公一样。
