Aurora
Aurora is a small town in central Brookings County, South Dakota just east of Brookings along the I-29 corridor in eastern-SD corn and soybean country, a community that blends a Brookings-area bedroom-community role with agriculture, trades, and the small businesses serving the surrounding farms. Its metro-edge-and-farm setting anchors a small local economy. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Aurora area's agriculture, trades, 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.
Do you work with businesses in Aurora, South Dakota?
Yes — remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, and being a small Brookings-area community in central Brookings County is no obstacle: nearly all of our work is done remotely, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. An Aurora client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
