I don't think there is an SV-style company outside of SV because the SV ecosystem is not really replicable. That said, Chicago has quite a few non-finance tech companies: - Vividseats - Grubhub - Spothero - Sproutsocial - Uptake - Orbitz - HERE technologies - Trunk Club There are a myriad of smaller startup companies you've never heard of, as well as traditional corporate types like IBM, etc.
