The Best Places to Work

Reno Startups

Meet the people, go to the events, visit the spaces, help a startup and above all, have fun!

Don’t take our word for it…

I’ve lived in the Bay Area my whole life and I was ready to move. Creating a startup company is stressful no matter what, so I wanted to live somewhere more relaxed. I’ve found that in Reno. I also like living in a city while being surrounded by mountains. And since my parents live in Oakland, California, I wanted to live within driving distance.

Reno went from being a wild experiment to a true strategic advantage for Bombora. Our growth would not have been as pronounced if we had followed the herd of our industry by launching in traditional markets, such as Seattle or Austin.

Doug Erwin at EDAWN was super friendly and extremely helpful and gave me the resources I needed. Ever since moving here, we’ve had nothing but open arms and that’s exactly the kind of business community I want to be involved in. It’s been a refreshing experience.

When I was interviewing in other places, I didn’t like the thought of a 45-minute commute. Or, a two to three-hour drive just to get to a snowboarding spot. Here, I can drive across all of Reno and Sparks in 25 minutes. I can basically get anywhere in 30 minutes. I love Reno because it offers so many types of activities. There’s plenty of outdoor stuff in the summer—hanging out at lakes, boating, camping… In the winter, I get a season pass and go snowboarding every other weekend.

We founded our company here because of the extraordinary people. It has got to be of the best places in America to live.

Reno is the perfect amalgam of low taxes and a reasonable cost of living, not to mention the fact that it’s a metropolitan area with a burgeoning entrepreneurial community and a large university in which to recruit talent.
