We’re excited to keep raising the bar while deepening our engagement in the local Chicago area.”

The FBR Rockstar Award is based on direct and confidential feedback from franchise owners across a range of categories including customer satisfaction, franchise support, local community involvement, and revenue performance. NerdsToGo Chicago Downtown excelled in each of these areas, earning high scores for its innovation, growth, and client relationships.

This recognition not only celebrates the outstanding work of the Chicago Downtown team but also reinforces the NerdsToGo brand’s position as a leader in the tech services industry.
