Between 2010-2017, the hiring rate in the IT industry in Dallas grew on average by 7,8%, which is close to the federal average of 7%, according to a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. In 2025, Dalla’s tech ecosystem will add more than 20,000 jobs in software development, AI, fintech, and blockchain. This is due to the $1.1 billion startup funding that led to a raised demand for blockchain experts by 30%, and for AI and cloud positions by 17%.

The Dallas area is also home to major technology companies, including Texas Instruments and AT&T. Also, referring to IT companies, Dallas is the home of about 3,000+ tech companies with more than 313,000 people working there. Additionally, many tech companies are relocating to Texas from Silicon Valley in cities like Austin, Dallas, and Houston.

The local IT industry in Dallas has been one of the city’s economic backbones, with a high contribution not only to the budget but also in developing the human infrastructure and improving and promoting social inclusion via different local and federal programs. 

In the near future, Dallas is expected to expand the IT services industry into other fields, such as cloud computing, virtualization, wireless applications, and content delivery, data-center expansions, biomedical, and nanotechnology. 

For potential clients interested in working with Dallas IT companies, it is worth noting that the fast-developing trend of the entire IT industry will make Dallas one of the most well-developed and, at the same time, more expensive. However, IT projects executed with and by Dallas companies are considered high-quality and creative.
