In 1997, Peter Voghel founded The Catapult Company as a response to the wave of data consolidation acquisitions in the mid-2000s, driven by publicly funded ventures like Iron Mountain, Pierce Leahy, Lason, and Imagemax. These companies were acquiring small, independent businesses in records and media management that often lacked the scalability to compete with larger players. Many family-run operations accepted offers of liquidity and stock ownership, but new management soon struggled to integrate diverse, disparate operations. This rapid expansion model led to many companies either folding or reverting to family ownership, leaving behind fragmented businesses. To address these challenges, Peter developed the Catapult Process—a 90-Day Intensive Program designed to prepare private companies for acquisition, help restructure after failed acquisitions, or support the growth of promising ventures. The process focused on leadership development, core business processes, recruiting, and training, equipping companies with scalable strategies, operational plans, and the talent needed to align with their vision. Over the years, the Catapult Company’s protocols have been applied across various industries, from document management to financial services, fostering long-term relationships and a strong reputation for empowering businesses to thrive. Today, as CEO and Chief Ideation Officer of Renew The Nation, Peter has drawn on his experience and relationships from Catapult to build a team focused on a transformative mission: "Renew The Nation." Renew The Nation blends the Catapult ethos with Peter’s personal commitment to uplifting blue-collar workers—a group he’s closely connected to, having started his career as an HVAC mechanic. With this vision, Renew The Nation is pioneering a technology model that integrates HVAC, solar, and smart home technologies through its proprietary SUNNAI behavioral platform. This approach not only modernizes the trades but also establishes valuable career opportunities within a franchise model, empowering tradespeople with access to first-to-market products and services. Under Peter’s leadership, the same core principles of The Catapult Company—innovation, leadership, and scalable strategy—now drive Renew The Nation’s mission to empower the workforce, bridge the gap in the trades, and build a sustainable, tech-enabled future for blue-collar industries.
