The firm has a focus on modernizing companies within the financial-services, accounting and health-care sectors.

"The vibrant business landscape of Charlotte is a testament to our decision to meet the needs of our clients, and our belief in the city’s potential as a key market for our growth, especially in the finance, technology and health-care sectors," she said.
Sterner said the Charlotte office will serve as a key hub for its professional services delivery and sales teams. The space also will be a "catalyst for innovation, driving the development of new products, services or solutions," she said.
Tential's mission in Charlotte is to meet the growing demand of technology expertise locally, Sterner said.
"The Charlotte office will create new employment opportunities and support local talent development," she said. "We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace culture that values collaboration, candor, creativity and excellence."
