The History of NCDTech

Learn more about NCDTech’s milestones over the past decade…

  • 1996 – Founder John Forti began attending Microsoft, Linux and Adobe certification classes while working at his family’s restaurant, Carolyn’s A Matter of Taste.

  • 1997 – John started out doing entry-level tech work for home users and small businesses. While his plan was to get enough experience to move to the West Coast and get a corporate job, his business quickly grew with contacts from his family restaurant.

  • 1998 – As John’s one-man IT operation grew, he realized he would have to form a business and open a bank account to accept payments. In November 1998, he started Next Century Design, LLC.

  • 2000 – With the new millennium came exciting changes for the company. Next Century Design grew steadily and by 2000, he had two employees and a handful of corporate customers. After Y2K, what was the “next century” became the current century and John changed the company name to NCDTech. The NCDTech team moved into their first official office – a shared 20’x20’ office space at 9012 Manchester Road. NCDTech also became a Microsoft certified partner.

  • 2001 – NCDTech is designated as an Citrix certified partner.

  • 2002 – By 2002, NCDTech had expanded, with a total of four employees and more customers than ever. The team moved down the road to a new office at 9222 Manchester Road. NCDTech was also recognized as Astaro Preferred Partner in 2002.

  • 2003 – NCDTech aired a series of commercials on KSDK Channel 5.
