How do you become a successful entrepreneur in the high-tech industry, a leader in philanthropy, an author, and a huge proponent of computer science skills and education... all from the comfort of beautiful Bozeman, Montana? Greg Gianforte has managed to capitalize on all of these areas in a highly respectable manner.
 
Though his career started strong elsewhere in the United States, most of us around Bozeman became aware of Greg and his wife, Susan, when they founded the local company RightNow Technologies from their personal home back in 1997.  The company, a pioneer in the concept of cloud computing, flourished to over 1,100 employees worldwide and became publicly traded in 2004.  In 2012, Oracle purchased the very prosperous RightNow Technologies for…
