sensorFact Services, Inc., a cloud based data acquisition and storage company for the Internet of Things (IoT), announced today that it has relocated its headquarters from Davie, Florida to the anchor of Florida\u2019s High Tech Corridor, St. Petersburg.\u00a0\u00a0 Categorized as \u201cone of the top four high-tech employment centers in the nation<\/a>\u201d1<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0, St Petersburg and sensorFact Services have all the makings of a great fit with the city\u2019s existing resources and the company\u2019s current projected growth rate.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough we took serious note of St Petersburg\u2019s new residing talent, with their 6 percent millennial population increase in the past 5 years3, there are many factors about St. Petersburg and Florida\u2019s high tech corridor that attracted us to make this move,\u201d said Matt Horton, President of sensorFact. \u201cIt is true, that after our recent spin-off, we set out to find a home where we could take advantage of a talented base that is increasingly technology oriented, but we also wanted to find a diverse and flourishing economic environment that would be welcoming to a start up company like ours.\u00a0 St. Petersburg offers big city benefits with a small town feeling, and that means a lot to our team and their families who have all relocated here and are enjoying it.\u201d<\/p>\n

sensorFact Services will be joining the ranks of\u00a0\u00a0close to 20,000 companies<\/a>2<\/sup><\/a> encompassed by the High Tech Corridor.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0180 high tech businesses already employ 9,970 members in St. Petersburg<\/a>1<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0alone, allowing sensorFact the ability to tap into the local talent, technical resources, and already established friendly business climate found there.\u00a0 \u201cOther companies are proving this area as a key factor to a successful business formula.\u00a0 As reported in the Florida Trend, other companies have successfully grown from\u00a0less than 30 employees to a staff more than 200<\/a>2<\/sup><\/a> people in three years\u2019 time.\u00a0 With sensorFact already positioned for similar growth, we are excited to be in a place where our company can really take root and have the local support we need to expand our business,\u201d commented Rena Hafer, Vice President of sensorFact Services.<\/p>\n

\u201cTech companies like sensorFact are drawn to downtown St. Pete for the quality of life it offers, not only their executives, but to their employees and families,\u201d reiterated Larry Feldman, CEO of Feldman Equities LLC.\u00a0 \u201cWe are seeing a lot of interest from tech companies. Downtown St. Petersburg with its abundance of nightlife, restaurants, waterfront and walkable amenities is a significant draw for millennial employee recruitment and retention.\u00a0 You have a vibrant downtown, minutes from the most beautiful beaches in the world.\u00a0 The nation\u2019s top industries are taking note.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new home of sensorFact is situated near the waterfront and next to the Sundial.\u00a0 \u201cThis puts us within walking distance of several business partners and a substantial community of services that make this town feel so connected,\u201d Horton continued.\u00a0 \u201cWe\u2019re fully moved and open for business, and St. Petersburg has been more than welcoming.\u201d<\/p>\n
