Olive chose to expand within the Columbus Region. The region is home to a robust healthcare innovation ecosystem, with over 45,000 employees working in the industry. Olive will have access to a competitive pool of healthcare technology talent, thanks to the more than 50 colleges and universities in the region. The region’s large pool of technology talent, combined with its well-established healthcare sector, make it a hotbed for companies like Olive. Through the expansion, Olive will more than double its current workforce of 75 employees.
