Cantor announced the potential for the emergence of additional Allegro offices not only in the state, but across the country.

“About half of our work is done in Ohio each year, and the other half is national and international,” Canter explains. “If we can prove that we have successfully opened an office in Columbus, we will be able to replicate the model in other markets. “
