In January last year, Origin received a £3million cash injection after Calculus Capital bought an undisclosed percentage of the firm.
Mr Bryssau said at the time that the firm was hoping to see the number of staff increase from 100 to 400.
Then in May last year, Mr Bryssau was quoted as saying the company 'needs 140 staff by the end of the year'.
