“I’ve never before seen a situation where every sector of the [transportation] industry is slammed,” is the way one trucking executive put it. Meanwhile, the shortage of computer chips is impeding the manufacture of new trucks.

Another excellent @SCpowerteam #EDRFromAfar featuring @TradeGeek. Expect companies to begin dividing their supply chains - one for China, one for the rest of the world with high tech manufacturing opportunities for the US and EU. #siteselection

[James Chavez @James_A_Chavez]

Today we kick off our 2nd year of #EDRFromAfar by visiting again with Pete Mento on the “the Economics of Geopolitics & Trade Wars” in this COVID era and new Presidential administration.

We will revisit his predictions and look at the road ahead.

#siteselection #behindthescenes: Our clients can tell when your stakeholders don't work well together. It's incredible how much a supportive, collaborative, integrated economic development team can impact a company's perception of your community. @IEDCtweets @Consultant_CNCT

After nearly a year without travel, it feels good to be back in the (still socially-distanced) world. Especially today, it’s nice being up in the clouds. #roadwarrior #findingsites

@montymturner Sounds like I need to make ‘follow the transmission line’ more challenging for myself next flight!

Anyone else play ‘spot the wastewater treatment plant’ from the plane? No? Just me...? #findingsites #siteselection

Understanding the people analytics is integral to every #siteselection decision @glsconsults advises. @Michelin’s Director of Business Intelligence outlines how companies evaluate workforce as part of the siting decision in @AreaDevelopment. https://t.co/UwRtZMfMSo
