SEDC and Hannover 2017

 

The SEDC will again be purchasing a booth in the U.S. Investment Pavilion at the Hannover Messe to showcase the business location opportunities for our region. Our participation in the 2016 event was very well received from the 14 participants attending where over 80 leads were generated. For the 2017 event, we will again purchase the largest booth at the “platinum” level. In this space, we will have the opportunity for 14 people to work the exhibit. The fee to participate will be $2,900 USD. The exhibit will be branded as “The American South,” drawing in individuals interested in our region of the United States as a location for business investment.
