Company Synopsis
In today?s competitive and global economy, corporate site selection and location decisions are data-driven and often outsourced to seasoned professionals with deep knowledge of real estate, finance, workforce training, environmental issues, engineering, tax- and financial-incentive analysis, negotiation, and other disciplines. This same level of experience is required when working with state and local governments, economic development entities, and other organizations.
Our team at Avident Advisors combines, in one firm, this broad range of knowledge and experience required to provide effective location advisory services and economic development guidance. We have helped negotiate dozens of high-impact projects resulting in billions of dollars in investment and the creation of tens of thousands of jobs. We have extensive experience in the automotive, aerospace/defense, green energy, shipbuilding, steel, rail, petroleum/petrochemical, and other manufacturing industries.
Our professionals have experience on all sides of the negotiating table. Over the course of our careers, we have served in leadership roles at regional, state, and local economic development agencies, utility organizations, and private engineering companies, as well as in public-private partnerships and tax and revenue agencies, and at the top levels of state government.
