Back in 2001, Krish Panu had a problem with Wall Street. The CEO of At Road Inc. had launched his wireless-data software company in a September, 2000, initial public offering managed by Credit Suisse First Boston. But as the tech bust set in, CSFB and other banks dropped research coverage of the company, and Panu struggled to get At Road's story out. In 2001 and 2002, smaller investment banks like Think-Equity Partners began following At Road and took Panu to visit large investors. Today, At Road is profitable, its stock price has tripled in a year, and many of its largest shareholders are institutions Panu met through smaller banks. "We were looking to get attention, and the small banks worked harder," he says.
