National magazine touts Youngstown as a high-tech business center

YOUNGSTOWN — Youngstown may be poised to reinvent itself as a high-tech business center of the new century, according to an article in the May issue of Inc. magazine.

The magazine, which hit the stands this week, is the latest to tout the city’s determination to break from its reputation of corruption and economic failure and attract new businesses and ideas.

The 10-page feature spread, written by Bill Donahue, is titled, “Semper Youngstown,” a wordplay on the Latin phrase “Semper Fidelis,” or “always faithful,” which also is the motto of the U.S. Marine Corps.

The story showcases the city’s tech community, centered on the Youngstown Business Incubator, and the “young, civic-minded idealists” who are committed to Youngstown’s renaissance.
