For 7 years in a row, Odyssey has received Business First’s "Fast 50" award identifying Odyssey as one of the 50 fastest growing companies in Central Ohio.
Odyssey is the only Information Technology consulting firm to receive this recognition.
This recognition came as a result of our ability to maintain a 77% annual growth rate over the last 9 years. Even during the Information Technology downturn (2000-2003) Odyssey maintained a 34% growth rate while other consulting firms were merging or being driven out of the market.
Most recently Odyssey was awarded the SCOMBC MBE of the Year Award for 2006 in the large company category.
