This half day conference will feature speakers from the site selection industry who will give an overview of the site selection process and provide tools and resources for the attendee.  The second panel will feature case studies, which will give insight to all aspects of the process.  From the town who landed the relocation of a business, to the company who owned the site and marketed it properly, along with the brokers who solidified the deal.  Attendees will also hear from the companies themselves on how they decided on making the move.
