Neustep

Check out the WebWalk of the Capitol!

It is companies like Neustep that are defining the new technology economy. 

High-speed Internet access is essential to Neustep and the company’s growing list of clients.  The 4-year old, Chicago-based business builds “WebWalks”, which are virtual, interactive walkthrough tours available over the Internet. 

Neustep’s technologies allow industries like hotels, restaurants, tourism, education, and sports to enhance e-commerce, discover how people are using their Web site, and apply integrated marketing strategies to grow their current customer base. The online software also provides resources to educators who can use the WebWalk software to take their students on tours of historical locations without ever leaving the classroom.

WebWalk technology did not exist nine years ago when the Telecommunications Act was last updated, but new and innovative products and services like this are keeping state companies competitive and Illinois’ residents employed.

Neustep is anticipating significant growth over the next few years, with an impressive expanding client base. However, their continued success depends on increased bandwidth and increased access.  Without robust broadband infrastructure, companies like Neustep cannot sustain in Illinois.
