ImageNet of the Treasure Coast Celebrates 70 Years of the ImageNet Legacy

As ImageNet Consulting marks 70 years of innovation and service, we are proud to celebrate this milestone from right here on the Treasure Coast.

ImageNet Consulting of the Treasure Coast is independently owned and locally managed by George Potochney. While we operate as our own company, serving businesses throughout Palm City, Vero Beach, Jupiter, Fort Pierce, Melbourne, Stuart, West Palm Beach, and Port St. Lucie, we align with the broader ImageNet organization and its 70-year history of business technology leadership.

That combination — local ownership with the strength of a long-established technology organization — allows us to deliver personal accountability, responsive service, and enterprise-level resources to the businesses we support.

For our clients, that means working directly with a locally led team that understands the Treasure Coast market, backed by decades of experience, innovation, and industry expertise.

Below is a message from ImageNet Consulting’s CEO & President, David North, reflecting on this important milestone in the organization’s history.

70 Year Anniversary Message – ImageNet Consulting

David North, CEO & President
February 25, 2026

ImageNet Consulting is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year. What began with humble roots has grown into a thriving, multi-generational technology organization.

Founded by Bobby Roberson — a Marine, champion boxer, and entrepreneur — the company began as Southwest Typewriter, a small typewriter repair service. Over three generations of family ownership, it has evolved into a healthy, growing business technology company serving organizations across multiple markets. It is remarkable to reflect on how far the company has come over seven decades of dedication and innovation.

It is a tremendous honor to lead ImageNet Consulting. I have been fortunate to be mentored by my father-in-law, Tom Russell, throughout my 20-year journey with the company. Tom has always approached business with creativity, integrity, and a commitment to solving challenges in the simplest and most effective way possible. I was also mentored by Pat Russell during his tenure as CEO. Together, we navigated significant economic challenges and periods of uncertainty while continuing to grow the company. Pat remains a valued advisor and friend.

While I once envisioned starting my own business, I have found even greater fulfillment in continuing and building upon a legacy that means so much to me. My journey with ImageNet has been one of constant learning, growth, and leadership development. Though I am relatively new to the CEO role, I am honored to lead this organization into its next chapter.

2025 was a strong year for ImageNet, marked by revenue growth and healthy profitability across all service offerings. Each division continues to identify new opportunities and expand its impact. Looking ahead, our long-term vision is focused on continuous improvement, innovation, and expansion into emerging technologies. AI and robotics will play an increasingly important role in shaping our future. Technology is evolving faster than ever, and we are committed to staying ahead by becoming experts in the most innovative and transformative solutions available.

In the next decade, we anticipate surpassing revenue expectations as we continue our path toward becoming one of the leading business technology companies in the industry.

Today, ImageNet employs more than 550 team members. From its beginnings as a service company, our greatest strength has always been our commitment to delivering exceptional service to our customers. Our management team firmly believes that outstanding service is the foundation of sustainable growth and long-term success.

We would not be celebrating 70 years without the dedication, talent, and hard work of our employees — past and present. The ImageNet family is filled with individuals who take pride in their work and their role in the company’s success. This milestone belongs to them.

Happy 70th Anniversary to everyone who has been part of the ImageNet journey.


David North
CEO & President
