STA is very pleased to once again sponsor the Chicago Coder Conference, June 26 & 27. STA has been a key supporter from its inception, four years ago. This year’s conference offers 15 technology tracks and 100+ speakers, including some local Chicago technology celebrities. The University of Chicago’s Gleacher Center is once again the event’s location. Several of STA’s team from the Technology and Digital practices have been selected to speak.
