And ERCOT is also based outside of Austin.
Austin is also the state capital, centrally located & home of one of the nations largest universities (UT), who has a strong engineering & CS program graduating thousands of students per year.
So it shouldn’t be a surprise that major companies have a significant presence in or around Austin.
