Currently working at UIUC at a relatively new startup and yes there is a good community building here. There is lots of agricultural innovation going on here and having giants like John deere, adm, ABinBev as well as tech companies like said yahoo hadoop analytics group. Cool to see some UIUC research park love here on hacker news. Can't wait to get up and go back to work at the research park where I will be hacking on python all day!
