Eureka! Ranch International

Hall founded Eureka! Ranch in 1986. Originally designed as a "think tank for hire",[2] the Ranch worked primarily with Fortune 100/500 companies looking for new product ideas.[3] The Ranch partnered with the University of Maine in 2005 with the founding of a new field of study called Innovation Engineering.[4] Designed as a system based on the principles of W. Edwards Deming and the Quality Movement, it consists of 48 skills[5] designed to instill a mindset of innovation.

Merwyn Technology

The R&D team of Eureka Ranch developed an AI system called Merwyn Technology. This system is used to evaluate abstract ideas before additional effort is used to substantiate it. The system was named after Hall's father Merwyn Bradford Hall.[6]
