Overview

Enthought's mission is to work side-by-side with customers to develop scientific computing solutions that ease quantitative data analysis for making crucial decisions.

As a means to that end, Enthought develops software primarily using the Python programming language, which we consider the best vehicle for scientific computing currently available. Our goal is to be the center of an expanding universe of scientific computing in Python; that is, to increase the likelihood that scientists and engineers will choose Python for scientific computing, and for Enthought to be the company that they think of when they do so.

Enthought was founded in 2001 by Travis Vaught and Eric Jones. Started with angel funding, it remains free of debt and venture capital. Enthought's staff of about two dozen provides expertise in scientific and engineering fields, software development, project management, technical communication, and human-computer interfaces. Customers include Fortune 100 companies, national research labs, and the US government, with project engagements in geophysical modeling, computer-aided modeling for computational fluid dynamics, and financial modeling and analysis.
