Launch Consulting is thrilled to add Direct Technology’s Government Solutions Group to their roster of experts in digital transformation. Originally sister companies under equity firm TA Group Holdings, Launch and Direct Technology have a long history of incorporating each other’s expertise to create powerful, agile solutions that translate between the public and private sectors and create a better human experience for all.
