Market & Economic Impact

Fundamental to building a robust, reimagined economy contemplates the simultaneous and often self-reinforcing objectives of quality of life factors, productivity improvement, and inclusion. We encourage leaders to create and fund strategies and programs to deliver robust, equal, equitable, and resilient economies.  Consideration of future economic, political, and environmental trends are essential to consider.

Workforce Development

We have developed a focused evaluation process to identify locations that meet positional requirements, labor costs, and capacity objectives. Our advisors understand that prospective locations must have holistic and foundational attributes to support a balanced build/buy workforce. Our methodology facilitates the evaluation and screening process based on client goals.

A clean slate opportunity.

Incentive Programs

Our advisors will help you take advantage of incentive opportunities and can facilitate or prepare you for incentive discussions. Our clients' financial and human resource makeup and goals will drive all discussions, and we will involve your tax consultants, real estate professionals, owners, and human resource leaders. We have found that post-deal governance and reporting requirements are often an Achilles's heel, and therefore we ensure those are part of any discussion.

Take advantage of incentive opportunities.

Education Strategy

More than ever, it is imperative to integrate regional higher education into the workforce strategy of any technology-based company. We look for regions with educational capabilities and collaborative mindsets that will support our clients' acquisition of existing talent and the development of new talent.

Plan for the future of work.

Future Trends

Without a dedicated study of future trends, leaders risk strategic missteps by operating under dangerous assumptions. Our advisors are creative strategists and use future intelligence to locate the best environments for our clients, finding opportunities they didn't even know to be looking for.

We follow data, not intuition.

Real Estate & Infrastructure

Access to digital infrastructure is a requirement for doing business today. Ineffective infrastructure decisions can slow the pace of productivity enhancements and limit the diffusion of benefits. The appropriate real estate selection is also vital.  The new paradigms lead by working at home, and smaller, more agile space consumption can increase productivity and reduce costs. Current and future leaders must heavily consider these components to prepare for the unknown.

Expose the digital divide.

Cross-Entity Collaboration

Collaboration by various government and non-governmental stakeholders is required to be successful. Regional cooperation focusing on the collective goals of all the interested parties is essential.  Strong regional leadership correlates to success when utilizing strong communication, local attributes, diverse membership, flexible structure, and realistic perspectives regarding regional investment capital to ensure that client expectations and regional needs are satisfied.

We help limit the barriers to economic development.

Communications

Our communications approach starts with and requires buy-in at the senior levels of all the stakeholders. Establishing the appropriate advisors to develop and implement consensus-based messaging for consistent positioning to the region is essential for success.  Our communication methods result in sustained and credible messaging in critical areas of interest to all constituents.

Unify consistent communication.
