Google, Amazon Web Services and Facebook have collectively invested billions in their data center campuses in the Columbus Region.
TechCrunch recently said "Columbus, Ohio is quickly becoming the Midwest’s tech hub."
The city is also a great incubator for startups, thanks in no small part to fertile ground provided by Ohio State faculty and students, and the university's investment in innovation from idea to commercialization. Fortune 500 and Fortune 1000 companies that call the Columbus metro area home include Honda, Nationwide, AEP, Huntington, Abercrombie and Fitch, Scotts Miracle-Gro and Cardinal Health.
Its youthful, progressive spirit is fueled by a region with one of the largest college student populations in the nation, with nearly 60 college and university campuses.

It's easy to explore the city via rentable bikes and scooters or using your COTA bus pass (students ride free).
Spectator sports fans head to the Arena District downtown for the NHL Columbus Blue Jackets and Columbus Clippers AAA baseball. The Columbus Crew SC plays to passionate fans in their brand-new soccer-specific stadium. And, of course, our own Ohio State Buckeyes engage in a wide range of athletic pursuits.
