Music streaming service Pandora on Monday opened an office in the Cortex innovation district.
The St. Louis office will be home to a sales staff of five to seven employees.

“Pandora came looking for us,” said Dougan Sherwood, co-founder and managing director of CIC St. Louis, which is housed in the @4240 building.

Sherwood said officials with Pandora, which is based in Oakland, Calif., wanted to replicate the culture they have at their headquarters.

“So when you come to a place like CIC, which has intentionally developed a culture of entrepreneurship, and startup activity and technology, I think the folks there felt like they were at home,” he said.
