Gianforte had to believe that. After selling his first start-up to McAfee (nyse: MFE - news - people ) for $10 million in 1994, he moved to Bozeman, Mont., and launched another software company a few years later. But getting funding for RightNow, his new customer-service software company, proved impossible, because Bozeman isn't a tech hotbed or a magnet for venture capitalists.
