Virginia Tech

A recent $5 million joint commitment from four Virginia Tech alums will fuel entrepreneurship and innovation initiatives both on and off campus.

The alums, Brian Callaghan, Ted Hanson, Edwin "Win" Sheridan and Jeffrey Veatch, are the men behind Apex Systems, an IT staffing and workforce solutions firm with more than $1 billion in revenue built up in the past 12 months. Apex was acquired by On Assignment in 2012, and in 2013 placed more than 20.000 professionals.
