Software heavyweight moves headquarters to Silicon Alley - NY Daily News
New York City’s challenge to Silicon Valley’s high-tech dominance continues apace. By the time Mayor Bloomberg’s brainchild of an applied sciences campus takes root in 2013, the momentum may be too great to stop.
Latest case in point: Infor, the world’s third-largest creator of manufacturing software, is moving its headquarters from Atlanta to the Flatiron neighborhood of Manhattan — joining Google, Facebook, Twitter and other leading-edge firms in establishing a major presence in the city.
CEO Charles Phillips says the prospect of the new engineering campus — the prize Stanford, Cornell and others are fiercely competing for — was a big part of the reason behind the relocation.
Another example of New York as a multicultural, multi-scene high tech hotbed, competing against the monocultural Bay Area.
