Information about
Cityscape USA -

investment and city development
projects in big emerging markets will come to New York City in September
2008,
and will also showcase developments in North American cities to major foreign investors.
Contact us for details. |
The directory
below focuses on
professional services related to corporate development, finance, and strategy in
general, such as to define the larger context in which global direct
investment decisions are made, including potential alliances and M&A deals,
as well as issues such as political and economic risk analysis.
We will disclose any active participants in our work as shown in the table
for
Location Consultants
through links to
GUIDE Service Profiles.
This directory will highlight links for any active
participants in the GUIDE Network, such as to specific contacts and
standardized GUIDE Service Profiles about the scope of their services, capabilities, and
feedback from investors. |
The presence
or absence of any organization on these lists, or their position on the
lists, does not imply any endorsement or opinion about their services, nor
by them about ours. The selections are just intended to be helpful to executives who may be
unaware of such contacts, or how to reach them or their websites quickly. Please note that it generally is not viable to include more
direct "deep links" to the relevant services of the large accounting
and tax firms on their websites, because those addresses change too
frequently. Instead, refer to our
Professional Search
feature for site searches.
We may also identify other contacts of potential interest on
a selective basis, for the convenient reference of the executives we serve,
as in the case of the following initial examples which have no direct
affiliation with our services. |
