State Street Games Acquired by IT


Our little shop where we make video games was just acquired by some really sharp folks; who also happen to be the biggest and best in the business!
I have very high expectations. "The Future’s So Bright, I Gotta’ Wear Shades"

Company Also Acquires State Street Games As It Ramps Up for Growth Spurt

(Arlington Heights, IL – December 7, 2007) Don’t tell anyone at Incredible Technologies that business in the amusement industry is slow! ...

The company announced today that it has recently hired 7 new employees and acquired a game development studio to help get more products to market faster. “We’re expecting a strong period of growth during the next few years,” said President and CEO, Elaine Hodgson. “We’re very fortunate that such high-quality individuals have made themselves available to us. We’re very pleased to welcome them into the IT family.”

Hodgson was enthusiastic when she described the acquisition of State Street Games. “SSG will bring new blood and new ideas to IT,” she said. “We’re looking forward to great things from them.”
State Street Games (now called IT West due to the location of their offices in Chicago’s western suburbs) spokesperson, Jim Terdina, echoed Hodgson’s excitement. “IT’s resources and financial position will allow us to achieve goals and ambitions we could never attain on our own. They’re a big company but we feel very comfortable with them.”

While Incredible Technologies is a fabulous company, it's the second-best organization in Arlington Heights. I'd have to put that awesome hospital above it.
