Software and hosting for Foxborough's Route 1 businesses
Route 1 and the stadium district
Does Kief Studio work in Foxborough? Yes.
Foxborough has made Route 1 its top priority for growth. The state's Stadium Act set up an economic development area along the road, and the town added a 500-acre overlay district around the stadium. MAPC's study of the corridor describes industrial, office and retail uses that serve a regional market, plus a number of distribution businesses. Kief Studio builds the customer-facing and back-office software firms along that road run on, and hosts it on LTFI from our studio in Shrewsbury.
The more interesting number is about offices. The same study found Foxborough added jobs far faster than the county or the state after the recession, led by professional and technical services. Firms like that tend to run on a patchwork of SaaS tools and a website someone set up years ago. We pull the tools together, rebuild what has to be rebuilt, and keep the whole thing running so the partners can stop being the IT department.
