"We initially established SAS' headquarters here due to El Segundo's position as the leading aerospace center in the region and for its ideal location. It has become much more than a convenient place to set up shop. In addition to being there for us at every turn, we appreciate what the City has done to attract and stockpile top talent from across the country. El Segundo is a mecca for the best and brightest."
