Company OverviewAt both the confluence of two great rivers and the intersection of three major upstate highways, Binghamton has long been where opportunities converge. Home to industry pioneers like IBM, Link Aviations, and television icon Rod Serling, Binghamton boasts a long tradition of innovation and excellence in both commerce and culture.Today is no different. Binghamton University, recently named a Center of Excellence by the State of New York and host to a new, multi-million dollar Technology and Innovation Center, is aggressively pursuing cutting-edge research and development, bringing incredible talent and resources to the area. A diverse network of industry leaders - Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, Gannett Publishing, NCI, Maines Paper and Food Services - complements a growing small business infrastructure and provides a healthy diversity to our economic base. As for cultural excellence, Binghamton boasts an ever expanding network of downtown art galleries, which together host the award-winning monthly First Friday Gallery Walk, an event that has drawn thousands from around the region to our revitalized urban core. The city also hosts a string of annual events, such as the Chris Thater Memorial Races, July Fest, World Youth Classic Baseball Tournament, Balloon Rally and Spiedie Fest, Empire State Games, and the nationally-recognized First Night. The Rod Serling Film Festival, now entering its 11th year, has been described as a “Cannes for young filmmakers.” Our historic zoo, under new leadership, is collaborating and integrating with the adjacent Discovery Center to become a major family destination. And the Binghamton Mets and Senators provide nearly year-round entertainment for sports fans of all ages. |
