Chicago Engineers Foundation Names Steadfast CEO to Board of Directors

October 5, 2017

Chicago Engineers FoundationChicago, IL - Karl Zimmerman, CEO and founder of Steadfast, was recently elected to the board of directors of the Chicago Engineers’ Foundation. As part of the board, Zimmerman will work to help influence STEM education in Chicago Public Schools as well as working with the award and scholarship programs. 

“This is a great opportunity for me to continue working to promote computer science programs to students in Chicago,” said Zimmerman. “My whole life I have been passionate about technology, and helping others ignite that same passion is a priceless gift.” 

Zimmerman is also dedicated to his work with the Rotary Club of Chicago, including steering opportunities for Chicago Public School students to get their first jobs and internships through the JOB1 program. Chicago area companies interested in hiring a CPS student can visit the Rotary website for more information. 

Zimmerman founded Steadfast in 1998 at the age of 14 in his bedroom in Fond du Lac, Wis. His company began as a hobby to feed his passion for internet technology. While the company has evolved from a hobby to a multimillion dollar IT company based in downtown Chicago, Zimmerman’s passion for technology remains a cornerstone of Steadfast principles. In 2017, Steadfast operates over 20,000 sq. ft. of state-of-the-art, private data center space and manages thousands of high-performance servers, running on top-of-the-line networks and utilizing the best carriers in the world, for businesses of all sizes.
