Our Story
Velocity Research was founded from a place of passion, vision and ambition.
The idea of Velocity first started when I was in the corporate world. Many of my friends at the time dreamt of taking their side jobs and passion projects, and making that their full-time pursuit, but that’s not easy.
That’s where our story began. To help my friends pursue their passions, I developed a web platform that connected freelancers to local clients who could benefit from a refined professional skill-set.
With a vision of fostering community, Velocity’s platform supported everyone from local yoga coaches to up-and-coming graphic designers and seasoned engineers. Starting a new business was exhilarating (and terrifying), and despite the ups and downs, we were gaining speed.
So were our engineers. Throughout the first year Velocity had crafted a team of ambitious up-and-coming engineers who took ownership and pride in their work. They became our competitive edge, and our focus moving forward.
In January 2020 Velocity Research celebrated its successes, moved to a larger space and focused on growing our research group of passionate, community-minded and ambitious engineers. We work hard with a people-first approach to deliver top notch technology to local, national and international clients.
That’s who we are, and we’re excited to see where it will take us next.
