Why Attend
Corporate executives planning an expansion or relocation project face a significant challenge in deciding where to place their business.
Whether your company is in technology, cyber security, electric vehicles, plant-based foods, sustainability, bio/pharma, blockchain, healthcare/medical tech or other high-growth industries, finding the right location is a difficult, time-consuming and costly exercise.
LiveXchange Emerging Industries addresses this challenge through a three-tiered approach:
Interactive Experience
The LiveXchange Emerging Industries Executive Conference Program, led by industry experts from high-growth industries, provides an interactive experience that helps Delegates better plan and manage their companies’ relocation or expansion projects.
One-on-One Meetings
One-on-One meetings with economic development agencies allow Delegates to get a deep understanding of how different cities, states and regions can help support their business needs. These 30-minute meetings are designed to help Delegates learn about different locations, share information and discuss project plans.
Networking Events
Multiple networking events provide an opportunity for Delegates to make invaluable professional connections with other site selectors and economic developers.
