Illumiti Celebrates 20 Years of Service Excellence and Growth

The systems integration and management consulting firm reaches a 20-year milestone with the steadfast support of devoted employees and loyal clients.

TORONTO, ON (October 27, 2020) – Illumiti, a leading systems integration and management consulting company serving a variety of customers globally, celebrates its 20-year anniversary. Over the first two decades, Illumiti has learned that revenue growth is only achievable with drive, dedication, and a relentless commitment to creating strong customer and employee loyalty. With customer experience excellence as a key differentiator, Illumiti is excited to celebrate this 20-year milestone and eager to position itself for continued growth.

Over the course of the last 20 years, Illumiti's vision has become a reality—the firm has lived up to its own words and mission, for itself and its clients, to “Realize Your Vision.” Since 2000, Illumiti has grown from a small, niche integration firm to a global technology enabler in Information Technology partnering with customers in a variety of industries: Construction, Mining, Manufacturing, Industrial Machinery, Oilfield Services, Mill, Building Materials, Paper and Packaging, and Wholesale Distribution.

Founded by CEO Nir Orbach, the firm was established with a clear vision to guide its customers on what’s necessary to accelerate their growth and to be better able to evolve. Over the past two remarkable decades, Illumiti has partnered with forward-thinking organizations, and since the company’s inception, numerous Illumiti clients have remained loyal to the firm with a large percentage of employees still remaining, many having five or more years of service and ambassadorship with Illumiti.
