History & Culture

Horne International‘s foundation is built on a company founded by Darryl Horne in 1990. When he opened his one-person shop, his aim was high:

Attract a staff with impeccable credentials
Leverage leading-edge technology into a competitive advantage
over more established firms
Build a company that would stand out by virtue of its high
standards of professional excellence and personal integrity

In recent years, Horne has grown and evolved into a significant player in the federal and commercial contracting arena, and our entrepreneurial spirit still drives us forward. What began in 1990 with one person’s vision has become a vibrant organization with a growing reputation as a world-class company that is helping to solve some of today's most demanding challenges.
