A recent issue of Business Facilities magazine named Ann Arbor as one of the top 12 Sweet Spots For High Tech in the U.S.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The editors cited Cisco’s 2018 acquisition of Ann Arbor-based Duo Security and KLA, one of the largest semiconductor equipment companies in the world, which selected Ann Arbor for the location of its new R&D facility. “Anyone who wasn\u2019t already aware of Ann Arbor\u2019s dynamic tech ecosystem was certainly taking notice after those two headline-grabbing announcements,” they wrote. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
