Beta Group Inc., of Lincoln, started small – with three employees in 1982 – and it has continued to grow, taking a leap, for example, in mid-2012, when it acquired the landscape architecture firm Gates, Leighton & Associates, which became a new division of BETA.
For the most part, BETA’s growth – to 145 employees in 2016 – is a consequence of good work and cultivation of ongoing and repeat relationships with its clients.
