The
Huntsville Connection
Huntsville, Alabama is
perhaps the best-kept secret in the entire electronics industry. A
rich labor pool provides access to technical talent in all
disciplines and the low cost of living in Madison County and the
surrounding area makes for a stable job market with the ability to
retain key employees. Our roots in Huntsville go back almost 20
years, which have enabled us to cultivate a history and
relationships with most of the local players. The Huntsville
electronics culture is still small enough to be dominated by these
relationships. It is not unusual for business commitments to be
formalized by a handshake, rather than a lengthy contract.
Huntsville has been ranked in numerous national publications over
the last few years for both quality of life and concentration of
high-tech workers.
