11/03/2015
A full-service technology provider specializing in cloud, security, professional and managed services, Orion Technology Services opened its first Sunshine State location in Orlando, Florida. The expansion will include a $768,000 capital investment with expectations of creating 30 jobs.

“Orion is very excited about further expanding our brand into Orlando’s renowned business community,” said Matthew Singley, President of Orion Technology Services. “Orlando is an ideal location for our new office, with an excellent pool to technical talent and a thriving business environment.”

“Diversifying our economy is one of the most important things we can do, and companies like Orion Technology Services are helping us do that. By creating 30 new jobs in the Orlando area, they are continuing to show why Florida is the best state for business and the number one place to get a job,” said Bill Johnson, President/CEO of Enterprise Florida.

Florida Department of Economic Opportunity Executive Director Jesse Panuccio said, “Because of pro-growth, low-tax policies, Florida’s economy is growing and diversifying. The expansion of Orion Technology Services is great news for the growing I-4 high-tech corridor.”

Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer said, “We are excited to welcome the regional headquarters for Orion to Downtown Orlando, and the company’s decision to locate here is a true testament to our talented workforce, business climate, high quality of life and our ability to grow and attract technology companies and headquarter operations.” said Rick Weddle, President/CEO of the Orlando Economic Development Commission. “We’ve noticed a trend of companies seeking locations in downtown Orlando’s IT hub. Orion is one of those companies that are aligning with the innovative growth here in Orlando and we’re happy to welcome them to the region.”

The Orlando EDC assisted the company in the application and approval processes. The State of Florida, Enterprise Florida, the City of Orlando, the Orlando Community Redevelopment Agency and Valencia College have also been important partners on this project.
