The 2014 Seven Small Jewels: Cambria Solutions

Cambria Solutions was started 10 years ago with a pair of Ikea desks and a goal to build something special, says CEO and Founder Robert Rodriguez. The first things he built, he jokes, were those two desks, but little did he know a decade later he’d be celebrating Cambria’s 10th Anniversary with a company-wide event in Lake Tahoe.

Cambria Solutions Cambria Solutions was started 10 years ago with a pair of Ikea desks and a goal to build something special, says CEO and Founder Robert Rodriguez. The first things he built, he jokes, were those two desks, but little did he know a decade later he'd be celebrating Cambria's 10th Anniversary with a company-wide event in Lake Tahoe.

One of the reasons for the celebration—Cambria was coming off a year in which it grew 60 percent. This allowed the firm to double in size in terms of staff, offices and revenue in just the last two years. "There's no doubt about it, this is explosive growth for us," Rodriguez says.
