“This is an exciting time for Matic, and the Columbus Region has the right blend of skilled talent, entrepreneurial climate and vibrant economy to support our rapid expansion,” said Aaron Schiff, co-Founder and CEO, Matic. “With more than a dozen enterprise agreements set to launch this year, we are confident Columbus will continue to offer the resources needed to support our growth.”
