Our History

Our History

Pantheon - Through The Ages

In 1996, Jon Stagman stopped for a cup of coffee at a "cyber-cafe" in his hometown of Waseca. Uncovering a need for computer services

right where he grew up, the idea for Pantheon was born.

By 1997, Pantheon was up and running.

The company has grown and matured with the ages,

and its evolution is full of great milestones!
