Located on the southern shore of Lake Ontario, in the western region of Upstate New York, the City of Rochester is New York's third largest metropolitan area.  Traditionally known for its homegrown "big three" companies (Kodak, Xerox and Bausch & Lomb) Rochester has quietly maintained its position as one of the leading manufacturing cities in the U.S., while simultaneously diversifying its economy and making a name for itself in several emerging technology sectors.

Like most secondary markets, Rochester competes with primary markets by offering a lower cost of doing business and several quality of life advantages that are difficult, if not impossible, for larger cities to match.  Despite a manufacturing base that has gone through a period of reduction, Rochester still consistently ranks among the top 10 exporting cities in the U.S.  With a workforce that also ranks in the top 10 for productivity, and the areas growing status as a hotbed for the high-tech industries that are shaping our new economy, Rochester is a city that is bucking many of the negative trends afflicting some other cities in the Northeast.
