Urgenci helps companies across industries, and of all shapes and sizes, solve their most challenging business + technology problems with a personalized approach. At Urgenci, we don’t do one-size-fits-all. Started in 2012 by the founders of the Laurel Group, a retained executive search firm, Urgenci was created to help technology executives navigate an ongoing business problem: successfully deploying business + technology professional services. When it comes to choosing a business + technology professional services firm, the choices are limited. At one end of the spectrum are the Big 4 type of firms - expensive, global not local, and driven to deploy more people than you really need. And, at the other end of the spectrum are the on-shore/off-shore staffing firms pushing resumes vs. offering real solutions. Urgenci services enterprise, mid-market, and emerging-growth companies by designing customized solutions for every client. While each business is in a different stage of growth with a different set of unique challenges, the common theme remains the same – the need for highly skilled people who solve problems with the best solutions.www.urgenci.com
