Presidio Technology Capital hopes to preside over the abolishment of computer illiteracy. Founded by John Crilly in 1976 as a reseller, the company has evolved into a financial information technology services specialist. It provides IT infrastructure leasing for a wide range of technical support, including hardware, software, professional services, maintenance, and upgrades. By leasing instead of purchasing computer equipment, IT executives can cut costs as well as reduce the risk of owning technology once it becomes obsolete. The company is a subsidiary of Presidio, which also is the parent of Presidio Networked Solutions and Atlantix Global Systems.
