City leaders are hoping Chicago is heading for an increase in tech jobs.

City business leaders are dreaming big after Google's recent announcement the company will expand and purchase the Loop's Thompson Center. Will more tech companies follow? Does the Chicago region have the talent to fill the new jobs and can the region attract the kind of venture capital that has reigned down on places like Silicon Valley?
