Carlos
Carlos is a small city just north of Alexandria on Lake Carlos, a lakes-tourism and resort community at the gateway to Lake Carlos State Park with a base of resorts, hospitality, recreation, and service businesses. Its lake-and-park setting draws boaters, campers, and summer visitors throughout the season. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Carlos area's tourism, hospitality, recreation, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania, distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
