Client Spotlight – Kosh Solutions

By Julianna Silva | May 11, 2018

Kosh Solutions was founded as a home-based business in 2005 by Koert Council and Joshua Fristoe to provide quality computer and IT consulting service to an under-served market in Las Cruces, New Mexico. After six months of providing IT support on an hourly basis, Kosh moved out of their living room and into a Las Cruces commercial building.  In 2008, Kosh wanted to expand into the Albuquerque market and became a WESST client. The company became WESST’s first incubator tenant when the WESST Enterprise Center opened for business in January, 2009.
