When you think tech in the U.S., does your mind go straight to Silicon Valley? We wouldn't be surprised if it did. The California region is the globe's best-known name for technology, and is the birthplace and home to many of the world's biggest tech companies. More than 30 businesses in the Fortune 1000 are headquartered here, and it is home to thousands of startup companies too. Outside of Silicon Valley, there are other well-established locations for tech in the U.S. including Atlanta, Boston and New York City, which has the largest tech workforce nationally, with over 670,000 people employed in the sector. Additionally, the State of New York attracts the country's second-largest amount of venture capital after California. Seattle, too, has a long history in technology, and has famously been the home of Microsoft since 1979. Last year, the State of Washington came in top place on the 2021 Global Startup Ecosystem report. ...

Huntington Bank's acquisition of TCF Bank last year resulted in 5,000 new colleagues for Sandy Pierce, one of Michigan's most connected business leaders. Pierce, a senior vice president and chair of Huntington's Michigan operations, inherited those 5,000 colleagues under her purview at the nation's 20th-largest bank, along with a dozen state-level regional presidents who report to her now. "I just have more to do," Pierce told Crain's. "And I'm really happy about that." What's got Pierce equally jazzed is Huntington Bank's construction of a new downtown Detroit headquarters for its commercial banking business will be complete by the end of the summer. The bank's corporate headquarters will remain in Columbus. Huntington employees, including many who came from TCF Bank's corporate offices in Troy, will begin moving into the 20-story building at Woodward Avenue and Elizabeth Street around Labor Day, Pierce said."Wha...

Banks are on the lookout for new current account customers, and they are prepared to pay you up to £175 if you move your main account to them – but make sure you pick the account that best suits your needs. The Current Account Switch Service (CASS) makes it quick and painless to switch banks. All you do is open a new current account and request a switch via CASS. The service will then close your old account and move all your money, direct debits and standing orders to your new account within seven days. Plus, for three years any money that is paid into your old bank account or tries to leave your old account will automatically be changed to your new account. Weighing your options So, what are your options? HSBC is offering the biggest cash switching bonus, with £170 if you are a new customer and move to its HSBC Advance account. However, there isn't anything else that makes the account worth having: it pays no interest or cashback, and the interest rate on an overdra...
