Hatch Ltd.

3 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 9 D r. Gerald (Gerry) Hatch was a celebrated Canadian metallurgist and multi-disciplinary consultant who became a member of the Canadian Science and Engineering Hall of Fame in 2011. His legacy company, founded in 1955, began in Toronto, Ontario as a pioneer of bold, engineering-based approaches to infrastructure projects (think: subway tunnelling), answering the call to what he believed were the most provocative technical challenges. In 1962, the company expanded – on its way to becoming the budding, world-renowned global consultancy, Hatch. Flash forward to 2022, where Hatch has grown into a global engineering, project management, and professional services powerhouse. The firm’s footprint now spans 65 offices employing more than 9,000 people across six continents and ranks as a Top 225 International Design Firm according to Engineering News- Record. “The original company was composed of two metallurgical engineers and two heavy civil engineers – it’s obviously grown quite a bit since those days,” shares Amar Jolly, Global Director of Nuclear. “But we remain a private, employee-owned firm and we think that’s a key differentiator for Hatch. It gives us the ability to think long-term, to look at trends over a longer period of time. As opposed to some of our competitors who are publicly traded, for example, and are very focused on quarterly or year-end results.” AT A GLANCE HATCH WHAT: Global engineering, project management, and professional services firm WHERE: Mississauga, Ontario and other Canadian locations as well as 65 offices around the world WEBSITE: www.hatch.com Ltd.
