Our History

twentysix New York is a continually evolving business solutions provider. We began our corporate life as the Hudson Technology Group in 1997 with only five employees. Today, we have a full time staff of more than 40 consultants, architects, analysts and client service professionals.

Our identity has also evolved. As we grew and expanded from a privately-held consultancy to one with the support and backing of a publicly-held international communications group, our name changed and so did the needs of our clients.

Our history tracks these changes and more importantly, how we have adapted our expertise and techniques to meet the demands of an ever-changing marketplace.

Today, we specialize in designing and building custom applications, business intelligence systems, and portals. We use Enterprise Integration techniques to deliver solutions that are seamless, scalable, high performance and reliable.

We can help you gain competitive advantage through technology.
