University Place
University Place is a residential suburb in Pierce County, Washington just west of Tacoma along the Puget Sound shore, home to the Chambers Bay golf course that hosted the US Open, with professional services, retail, and small businesses. Its economy runs on professional services, retail and dining, healthcare and local services, golf-and-recreation, and the small businesses of an established Tacoma-area suburb. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for University Place's professional-services, retail, and small-business operations, 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.
