Our Story

  • Beginnings

    In 2010, our co-founders Colin Callahan and Byron Sommerdahl created Acklen with the goal to both deliver value to customers and develop talent in a thriving environment.

  • Connections

    On a trip to Honduras, Byron met the love of his life — and got connected with the community there.

  • Diverse Talent

    Acklen brought on skilled talent from Honduras, creating opportunities for people in a struggling economy and expanding the company’s work across countries.

  • Worldwide Developers

    Now, Acklen employs nearly 200 team members in over 21 countries, allowing us to flex for unique project and client needs.

We're always developing ideas, software, and of course, ourselves.
