The Columbus Region is one of the fastest growing major metropolitan areas in the Midwest and is celebrated as the second strongest metro in the country for job creation. An up-and-coming tech city, our research and technology institutions are attracting the brightest minds from around the world. Our smarts, energy and vibrancy are fueled by a workforce that’s younger and more educated than the national average. And our youthful, progressive nature is matched by a top-ranked location within a day’s drive of 47 percent of the U.S. population. (brandcolumbus.com)
