Bridging business and tech: How Nick Enger is scaling ATC from Southwest Ohio to nationwide reach
In today’s fast-moving digital economy, businesses need more than just IT support, they need a strategic partner. That’s exactly what Nick Enger, President and CTO of Advanced Technology Consulting (ATC), aims to provide.
Based just north of Cincinnati, ATC helps companies across the country navigate complex technology decisions. From cloud migration to cybersecurity strategy, and more, the heart of it all is Enger, whose rare mix of technical know-how and business insight is fueling the firm’s rapid growth and national expansion.
From Regional Roots to National Reach
ATC’s headquarters in Liberty Township was no accident. “We intentionally placed ourselves between Dayton and Cincinnati,” said Enger. “It allowed us to reach both markets efficiently and build strong relationships across the I-75 corridor while having ample access to both CVG and DAY airports.”
Today, ATC has grown far beyond its Ohio roots, serving clients nationwide across sectors like finance, healthcare, and manufacturing. But that original Midwest mindset, collaborative, customer-first, and pragmatic, remains central to the company’s culture.
ATC’s value proposition is simple: act as a true extension of the client’s team. As a virtual CIO (vCIO) for some of the firm’s largest strategic accounts, Enger’s team leads efforts that align IT infrastructure with broader business goals.
“We’re not just recommending tools, we’re solving real business problems,” said Enger.
Strategic Thinking Meets Technical Execution
With a background in engineering and leadership roles across telecom, technology and enterprise IT, Enger brings a unique blend of experience to the CTO role. At ATC, he’s responsible for both internal innovation and external strategy. He’s leading the charge on emerging areas like artificial intelligence, unified communications, contact center, and zero-trust security architecture.
“I’ve always been passionate about building bridges between people, process, and technology,” he said. “Being able to take strategy, vision and technical concepts and blend them together so a C-Suite can execute has been a talent of mine. My job is to help organizations think holistically about cost, scalability, security, and growth.”
It’s that clarity of vision that’s earned Enger recognition as one of Cincinnati’s top young executives. He’s a two-time finalist for the Business Courier’s C-Suite Awards and a past honoree in the 40 Under 40 list.
But for Enger, awards are secondary. “The real win is when a customer tells us we’ve made their life easier. That they feel more secure, more agile, and more prepared for what’s next.”
A Trusted Advisor in a Complex World
In a technology landscape crowded with vendors, buzzwords, and ever-shifting standards, ATC positions itself as a trusted advisor. One that helps companies cut through the noise and focus on what really matters.
Enger and his team work closely with clients to assess needs, design solutions, and manage execution. Whether it’s helping a growing organization scale its cloud infrastructure or guiding a 5,000 person company through a multi-year digital transformation, ATC delivers clarity and confidence.
“The speed of change in tech is relentless,” said Enger. “What we provide is a strategic foundation so our clients can move fast, without breaking things.”
Building in Ohio, Competing Nationwide
Enger is proud to be building ATC from Ohio. “We’ve proven that you can create a nationally competitive technology firm from here,” he said. “There’s no need to choose between innovation and affordability, or between ambition and values.”
From a purpose-built headquarters in Liberty Center to remote-first strategies that connect teams and clients across the U.S., ATC is scaling smart and staying grounded.
“We’re big believers in Ohio’s future,” said Enger. “And we’re excited to be part of building the next generation of tech success stories right here.”
