A local high tech company is expanding in Rochester, and they have big plans for future growth. <\/p>\n
The company is called CloudCheckr, and they provide cloud computing services for various businesses. <\/p>\n
Its CEO and co-founder Aaron Newman says they currently employ more than 100 people, about 75 in Rochester, and that number should double in a year. <\/p>\n
In five years, Newman says the expectation is they can grow to about a thousand employees at their locations around the world, with many of those jobs located in Rochester where they have their headquarters. They are expanding at Village Gate. <\/p>\n
Newman says one reason CloudCheckr wants to keep its headquarters in Rochester is because of the access they have to good talent. <\/p>\n
Specifically around kind of the high tech space that RIT is just so great at, providing talented individuals and thats people that are coming fresh out of school.\" <\/p>\n
Newman says the relatively low cost of living and easier commute compared to large cities is another reason his company is able to attract good talent. <\/p>\n
