Many communities around the country have adopted international commerce initiatives – but the SS/PC has real competitive advantages for helping companies go global and recruit global companies.
- Partnership – Liaison between city, county, state and national governments (SS/PC played a leading role in lowering city occupational tax for 2011 – a great incentive for business!)
- Global – Consular Corps and successful global companies headquartered in the immediate area.
- Location/Transportation – Access to major highways, airports, seaports, and ground transportation, including six rapid rail transit stations.
- Local Economy – Strong and growing.
- Residential – Highly attractive residential neighborhoods and a superior quality of life.
- Medical – Home to several world-renown hospitals and medical professionals.
