We’ve said often that economic development is a team sport. When it comes to showing off our region to major decision-makers, that absolutely is the case once again.
The Greater San Marcos Partnership (GSMP) recently hosted five of the best site selectors from around the country during our 2021 Texas Innovation Corridor Familiarization Tour. This tour, which is done annually, shows in-demand consultants why our footprint is a high-quality place to do business. It builds relationships that bring better projects and develops authenticity that becomes a resounding testament for companies looking to expand or relocate to our region.
Those two elements of quality relationships and full authenticity are the most powerful tools an economic developer can have when working with site selectors. After all, site selectors (also known as site consultants) are the most critical influencers for a company’s expansion or relocation efforts.
