Congratulations to Albany, New York for Top Ten Overall ranking and
two other Top Five rankings in the 2007/2008
North American Cities of the Future competition by fDi magazine for the
Small
Cities category (100,000 - 500,000 population). This competitive ranking
was featured in the April 2007 issue of fDi magazine.
This unique global benchmarking research project compared business
investment climates and urban development across North America. This
business location benchmarking and "short list" screening process is similar
to the approach commonly used by professional consultants. |
The "City of
the Future" competition is held every other year in regions around the world
by fDi magazine -
Foreign Direct Investment, which is published by the Financial Times group.

There were a
record 108 nominations from city economic development agencies in metro
areas across the USA, Canada, and Mexico for this very competitive
selection process involving nine months of research work and independent
expert review of more than 60 facts provided by the nominated cities. |
