When asked why he returned to St. Louis from a great IT gig in Silicon Valley, a Greater St. Louis Works colleague replied: "In Silicon Valley or in New York, you can be a number. But in St. Louis, you can be somebody."

We are large enough to offer the opportunities of the biggest metro markets, but small enough to be a community where individual people really matter.

Together, they represent the breadth of skills, backgrounds, and interests that make St. Louis one of the best places for tech-savvy individuals to live and work.
