History

Soliton was formed in 1993 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada with Clarke Bruce as president, and with some of the former employees of I. P. Sharp Associates. The business was in some ways a continuation of parts of I. P. Sharp, which was bought by Reuters Group in 1987. Reuters was interested mainly in Sharp's historic databases, and allowed some parts of the business to buy themselves out from Reuters.
