Hands-on experience, from startup to Oracle
OV1 Enterprises LLC is led by Mark Overton, a software executive and architect based in Malvern, Pennsylvania. When you work with OV1, you work with Mark directly.
Mark has spent more than 25 years building software products and the teams behind them: as a programmer, an architect, a vice president at Oracle, and a CTO. He has started product lines from zero, grown one past $100 million, led distributed teams across the US and Europe, and been through two company exits by acquisition.
He still writes software. OV1’s own products, GameStoreOS and TopoScorer, are designed and built in house on current cloud and AI technology.
Mark is also a U.S. Army veteran.
