The Venvidici Inspiration
Josh Herman, founder of Venvidici Ltd, has worked in the construction sector in Cleveland since 2005, during which he supervised large construction projects, interacted with design professionals and government regulators, and oversaw contractors and subcontractors on job sites. He saw the experience and expertise gap between the project owner(s) and those doing the actual work. He understood there was a role to play for an experienced construction advisor in helping developers and homeowners make smart decisions to reduce costs and support high-quality work on their projects.
Venvidici Ltd. was named for Julius Caesar's famous declaration "Veni, vidi, vici," a phrase that has come to mean swift and expert completion of a desired and hard-won goal.
