  • April 27, 2016
  • The Progressive Policy Institute

A PPI report on the growth of the tech economy was referenced in this piece from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Thanks to growing companies like Citi, Enterprise, NISC, ESRI, Curas, BoardPaq and many others, St. Charles County is a strong part of the ‘Silicon Prairie’ in metro St. Louis and the Midwest,” Ehlmann said. “There are tremendous opportunities right now and for the foreseeable future for our residents to pursue lucrative careers in information technology or to pursue an entrepreneurial dream in IT.”

The Progressive Policy Institute ranked St. Charles County “one of America’s top 25 tech counties” in a 2015 report on high-tech job growth.”
