US Airways - August 2012 - (Page 93)

High-tech careers in Kentucky still permit low-stress lifestyles In Kentucky, a fast-track, high-tech career doesn’t require a long, slow commute to the office. Here you can enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle that includes a cost of living that’s among the lowest in the country, housing costs 30 percent less than the national average, excellent schools, and postcard-quality scenery everywhere you look. Kentucky is also extremely friendly to business. Innovative tax incentives and business development programs, a highly skilled workforce, and central U.S. location are just a few of the reasons why in 2011 Kentucky ranked 8th among all states for most new companies and, over the past decade, had the 5th fastest growth rate in entrepreneurial activity. Kentucky also makes a great location for corporate headquarters and regional offices. Companies such as Ashland, Inc., Toyota Motor Engineering and Manufacturing North America, Fidelity Investments, Tempur-Pedic International, Humana, Alltech, and YUM! Brands all have their homes here. High-tech entrepreneurs and start-up companies love Kentucky’s world-class research institutions and early-stage funding resources. Our statewide Innovation Network offers free entrepreneurship training and help in developing business plans and obtaining private funding. We’re also the only state to match both Phase 1 and Phase 2 federal SBIR-STTR awards, dollarfor-dollar, to our high-tech businesses. Working hard shouldn’t mean you have to live where everything else is hard. Kentucky makes things easy.
