Awesome #HQ2 podcast w @StephenMoret @HollyESears. Key takeaway: REGIONALISM and PARTNERSHIPS MATTER! My thoughts: "...the most significant way that @Amazon may transform economic development is by putting a stake in the ground for regional collaboration." https://t.co/QJKVvOn508

Our VP @jtgoldsmith had the opportunity to speak at the @insideFPL Illumination event in Jupiter Beach. This was an excellent forum to discuss the latest trends in foreign direct investment and the impacts of global economic changes on Florida’s economy. #TheSDGDifference #FDI

[Mark Williams @MarkWilliamsSDG]

I had the honor of hosting a podcast with Holly Sears Sullivan, who ran @amazon's HQ2 project, and Stephen Moret, of the @VEDPVirginia, at the @SiteSelectGuild meeting to discuss Virginia’s pursuit and selection for HQ2. Check out the podcast here: https://t.co/83bTNzkqzt

Our Senior Principal, Danielle Campolo, with the @NutramaxLabs mascot! It was wonderful to be a part of Nutramax's groundbreaking for their recently announced expansion. The SDG team was honored to assist with site selection and incentive negotiation activities #TheSDGDifference

I enjoyed moderating the #SSGSLC fireside chat with Holly Sears Sullivan, head of @amazon WW Economic Development, and Stephen Moret, President and CEO of the @VEDPVirginia, yesterday at the @SiteSelectGuild Annual Conference in Salt Lake City! #TheSDGDifference

[Clay Walker, CEcD @ClaytonRWalker]

One of the many insightful points from @amazon���s @HollyESears at #SSGSLC was on site development: Communities make these investments decades in advance, whether it be for an HQ, data center, or fulfillment center
Takeaway: whatever your targets, you need a place to put them

[Site Selectors Guild @SiteSelectGuild]

The room is quiet listening to Holly Sullivan, the head of @Amazon’s worldwide economic development, and Stephen Moret, president and CEO of the @VEDPVirginia. #SSGSLC
