Contact us for
free project assistance in confidence
for business location selection in the NAFTA region (USA,
Canada, and
Mexico). We are independent
professional advisors - not a government or non-profit economic development
or investment promotion
agency.
We provide personal introductory referrals to our
contacts and perform other "short list" research or project
planning assistance according to the specific investment project interests
of the corporate executives and business advisors we serve.
The global
cross-border nature of our research and investment project referral work is unique in this market.
A similar Invest in Europe directory is
available, plus directories for
other regions.
We
welcome suggestions , including additions or updates. |
Scroll down for directories
relevant to the NAFTA region, including both economic development agencies
and professional service providers.
Refer also to our related website :
www.OnTheShortList.com
It provides other custom research and tools for business location
selection work.
See how to request a
relevant directory listing .
We also offer marketing assistance to help
promote an area or service to relevant contacts. An estimated
500,000 visitors per year
will visit this website in 2006, up 150% from 200,000 in 2004. |

wide variety of names for such economic development organizations, and

actively involved in efforts to attract, expand, and retain business
investment projects in their areas (offices, factories, etc.), including the
attraction of foreign direct investment projects (FDI).
We provide personal
introductory referrals to such contacts and other assistance according to
the direct investment project interests of the corporate executives and
business advisors we
serve.
