Site Selection (Conway Data)

Executive Summary

Site Selection magazine has provided location assistance to companies since 1954.  Among the annual features are periodic ranking reports such as the "Governor's Cup", which compares the total number of investment projects won by US states.  This is also related to stories about the "top projects" each year, and various industry sector reports.  They also publish an annual directory issue with lists of economic development agencies such as their many advertisers.

Site Selection is published by Conway Data, which has also organized a new association, IAMC - the Industrial Asset Management Council.   The first IAMC Professional Forum was in Savannah GA, Oct. 27-30, 2002.

IAMC is an association of industrial asset management executives such as corporate real estate or facilities managers, their suppliers and service providers, and economic developers.  It provides a forum for seminars and professional networking.

Conway Data was formerly known for leadership in the creation and management of IDRC, which in 2002 merged with NACORE to become CoreNet Global.  Site Selection magazine is now the official publication of IAMC, rather than CoreNet Global, for which Conway Data no longer handles event management services.

Conway Data also maintains a project tracking database, mainly about investments announced in the US.  It works with other organizations for data about European project announcements, as reported in the magazine and e-mail broadcasts.

We provide an "advertising recall" service as a consistent process to help executives and their advisors to reach advertisers in this and similar magazines at any time, regardless of when, where, and how frequently the ad appeared.

Relationship Disclosure :

There is no relationship at this time beyond informal contacts and the periodic purchase of advertising by GDI Solutions at the same rates available to all advertisers. 

We now perform US ad sales work for one of the other magazines in this niche market - fDi magazine - published by the Financial Times group.  These magazines are targeted at different audiences, but attract some of the same advertisers.

Advertising and PR history :

January, March, and May 2004 issues, 1/2 pg color plus website banner ad.

May 2002 issue   1/2 pg BW ad in top projects feature story

Our "Advertising Recall" service highlights advertising in this or other media by economic development representatives and other professionals in this direct investment niche.  This enables executives and their advisors to find the advertisers when they need them for their projects, regardless of when and where the ads appeared.

We do not list all advertisements, as there is a small fee for them to be highlighted through this annual service.  The websites of the publishers will usually list only their recent advertisers for reference.  We make it easy to find their ads at any time through searchable text and thumbnail images in relevant directories and other content.
