Music City is home to the Grand Ole Opry and the Ryman Auditorium, as well as scores of young singers, songwriters and musicians. Nashville is home to many prominent companies, such as Nissan North America, Randstad, and The Kroger Co. Nashville has a very low rate of unemployment, making it an appealing place to live and work.

    Nashville is the place to find tech jobs in more traditional companies, such as Fortune 500 heavy-hitters HCA Healthcare, Dollar General, Community Health Systems, Tractor Supply, and Delek US Holdings. However, it’s also the desired location for professionals looking for something other tech hubs can’t say they have: music and fashion technology. This sizable metropolitan city brings a distinct note to tech, incorporating its rich musical history and uber-fast accelerating socially conscious fashion scene. Nashville doesn’t need to compete with other tech hubs for businesses to land; the city has plenty of big names, as well as startups. What it does require is tech talent.

Gas delivery startup Yoshi recently announced that it's moving its headquarters from San Francisco to Nashville, and other notable companies are chiming in with their demand for tech talent, including Cloudvue, Asurion, Sphere Payments, and Syndigo.

    In addition to the more well-known players that fuel Nashville’s thriving tech landscape, the city has one of the most iconic musical histories in the world. With this legacy, Music City is a refuge for creative things and, as such, is a natural segue for those seeking an entrance to technology. Advanced tech professionals in the city offer advice to those getting started, equating the requirements to being a successful musician and often match those to be a successful software developer. The overall culture of Nashville exemplifies those who are willing to take risks to see their dreams come true, and with support like the Greater Nashville Technology Council, exceptional futures are easily within reach.

    Companies enjoy the extraordinary welcoming business climate, where the city has a clear competitive edge over other well-known tech hubs. With no state income tax and a consistent ranking as one of the lowest-cost states to do business, Nashville is an ideal location. Local government strives to continue to attract startups and relocating businesses through affordable tax structures, and entities with already-established roots use the corporate-friendly environment as a key element when recruiting talent.

    Major industries alongside the music production world include health care management, automobile production, finance, higher education, technology manufacturing, and tourism. Looking at a list of such diverse sectors shows how savvy the economic council has been when ensuring that there will be a never-ending flow of opportunity in all tech and business ventures.

The Nashville region is home to nearly 2 million people and more than 53,000 businesses. The area is defined by creativity, a diverse economy, low living and business costs, and traditional Southern manners in all business affairs.

    Corporate giants call Nashville home for headquarters or base locations, including Nissan North America, Asurion, Community Health Systems, and Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. Not surprisingly, iHeartMedia is also one of the top employers in a city that lives and breathes music. Health care is a key element in the Nashville tech employment scene and is home to HCA Healthcare, Change Healthcare, and Ardent Health Services, all promoting dozens of relevant technology jobs and research positions per week. Other unique opportunities are coming from sports betting businesses that have raised more than $2.7 million from backers that are also financing the Nashville Tech Council’s recruiting campaign.

    Nashville is a mecca for those in musical and entertainment technology and has been from the birth of the music scene in America. With more than 190 recording studios, over 5,000 working musicians, and a plethora of live music gatherings every night of the week, the industry relies on tech professionals to keep it all going. Software-based virtual instruments and MIDI technology meld with recording artists to allow the incorporation of millions of sounds in music production, and multiple technology-based roles are added in the process. Every aspect of live performances, recorded sessions, and deliverables are tied to tech roles, and the demand in Nashville for tech talent is ongoing. For as many artists who are involved in Nashville, there are at least nine direct connections with technologists, paving the way for those in tech to be at the forefront of the music scene.

    Music tech startups have struck a harmonious chord with the recording world in Nashville. Home to the Grand Ole Opry, the Country Music Hall of Fame, and the Johnny Cash Museum, the culturally rich city is ripe for forward-thinking tech pros. Successful former startups such as Dart Data, Soundstripe, Recordgram, and NiceChart all leverage different aspects of technology to move music forward. Some of the most notable advancements these companies have made involve coding that helps listeners find the artists, albums, and songs they're looking for on digital music platforms. Other progressive music tech abilities include apps that enable producers to upload “leftover beats” for people to share and license in their own musical creations.

    Nashville goes far beyond music and entertainment as far as residents are concerned. Southern hospitality is the rule and norm, and despite the reputation for glitter and rhinestones, most people prefer a quieter lifestyle. Most people in the area are fiercely loyal to their neighborhoods and tend to go all out with block parties and other celebrations. Food has traditionally been part of what weaves the cultural fabric together, and neighbors have a reputation for sharing treats from generations-old recipes. Southern food staples sometimes confuse outsiders who are in for a treat. Other distinctly southern offerings include ice tea, which is, by default, “sweet tea,” unless specifically ordered as otherwise.

    When locals want to show off what Music City is famous for, they don’t hesitate to pull out the glitz, guitars, sequins, and neon to back up their city’s country music roots. Big personalities go along with big hats and big hair in many of the larger honkey-tonks, while more laid-back vibes are the scene for many smaller clubs offering a wide genre of music. With the tremendous amount of things to do, places to see, and people to meet, one of the best ways to get a small taste of it all is to utilize the city’s “hop on/hop off” trolley. Using this fun mode of transport allows access to the big venues, multiple museums, attractions, and some of the quieter spots in town to catch a breath. True to form, though, many visitors and residents like to turn it up loud and eschew the trolley for something more colorful dubbed “The Wildest Party Tractor Tour.”

    For everyday living, costs are low overall, making it possible to play at some of the city’s main or offbeat attractions. Housing costs are generally 3% lower than other metropolitan areas, and access to top schools and healthcare are prioritized. Salaries for those working in tech-related professions are strong, with examples such as User Experience Designers making an average of $96,000 and Product Managers finding an average salary of $98,000.
