ROW #539 · LEG 81 ITEM 7 · DUG (each firm, boundary) / TESTED NEGATIVE (Osceola seat, each firm)

The register forbids a grouped paragraph, so each firm stands on its own line — and each line ends at the same town line. Data Realty — a startup based at Innovation Park at Notre Dame, which in July 2011 bought a five-acre Ignition Park site from the South Bend Redevelopment Commission for $131,250 to build a nearly $10 million, 54,000-square-foot Tier III data center employing about 15 at opening; by 2024 its affiliate Data Realty Northern Indiana, LLC stood co-developer with Aunalytics at 1440 Ignition Drive. Seat: South Bend. Aunalytics, Inc. — Data Realty's sister analytics firm, incubated at Innovation Park, moved with Data Realty into Ignition Park's Catalyst One in May 2016 sharing about 15,000 square feet and about 45 combined employees, and in a May 9, 2024 development agreement committed at least $8.5 million in private investment and 25 new full-time South Bend jobs against up to $1.5 million in redevelopment funding for new servers. Seat: South Bend. Vennli — founded in 2013 by Notre Dame marketing professor Joe Urbany and serial entrepreneur and Notre Dame alumnus Gary Gigot; a tech-powered market-research and data-insights platform used by BMW, Dunkin, 3M, Tire Rack and others, which from 2019 won a run of SBIR/STTR federal awards including a $2.3 million Marine Corps scheduling project. Seat: South Bend. Trek10 — a cloud-services firm developing and managing cloud computing for businesses, named among the first tenants of the Renaissance District's Studebaker Building 112/113 innovation renovation in 2016. Seat: South Bend.

Tested one by one against Osceola: no office, founder residence, incorporation, or employment seat in Osceola, Indiana is documented for any of the four in any record reached. Closure: each firm DUG at documented size at its own seat; the Osceola second wave TESTED NEGATIVE, firm by firm, not as a group.
