Information Technology Firm T-Rex Comes to Greenbelt

T-Rex has invaded Greenbelt and was warmly welcomed by the Greenbelt City Council at its January 11 worksession. Don’t be alarmed. It’s not the infamous but extinct dinosaur. This T-Rex is an information technology (IT) business that has located its corporate offices and a major production center doing contract work for the U.S. Census Bureau in Greenbelt, filling vacant office space, housing contract workers in area motels and bringing jobs and tax revenue to the city. In this case, T-Rex stands for the Latin technologica rex (technology is king). Attending the meeting were Sean Murphy, T-Rex vice-president and chief operating officer; J. Thomas Howe, principal project manager for facilities and infrastructure for the Census Technological Integrator Program; and Stephen Shaw of Shaw Real Estate.  Read more on this story by clicking here.
