On Valley Edition: Bitwise Industries Launches Downtown Tech Hub

Bitwise Industries

Fresno is about to get its very own technology cluster, much like those seen in cities like San Francisco, Seattle and Austin. The hub of innovation is known as the Bitwise South Stadium in Downtown Fresno. 

The 50,000 square foot building will host 90 technology companies, a gym, two restaurants and a theater seating 200. The self proclaimed "mothership of technological education" sits in a 100-year-old renovated indoor car dealership.

Bitwise CEO Jake Soberal and Software Instructor Damon Thomas join Valley Edition's Joe Moore for a conversation about the Grand Opening and the future of technology in Fresno.
