One of these days Louisiana will be the Silicon Valley of the south. We will see who is laughing then



It might happen:

Back in 2015, WalletHub released a study that ranked Shreveport as the #1 place in the U.S. to start a new business. We scored high in office space affordability and skilled workforce availability. Hi-tech companies are taking notice.

In September of last year EATEL Business' subsidiary, Venyu Solutions, opened a new data center in the old Selber Brothers Department Store building in downtown Shreveport. It's the only three-tier data center in Louisiana, with the second highest level of security available worldwide. In a press release issued this past September concerning the center's grand opening, Louisiana Governor Bel Edwards stated, "From the Cyber Innovation Center to the Global Strike Command at Barksdale Air Force Base, to the 800-job CSRA Integrated Technology Center at our National Cyber Research Park, Shreveport and Bossier City are blazing a new technology corridor that extends to Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, CenturyLink in Monroe and to other points along Interstate 20."
