A little FCG update…

We have been pretty busy lately traveling and meeting with clients, helping them with their respective projects.

Most recently, Deane was a panelist at the South Carolina International Trade Conference in Charleston, SC.  The key topic was the importance of ports in site selection decisions…very important!!

Deane met up with client Wayne County (MI) EDGE and some key prospects in Dallas at the Steel Restaurant…great discussion on the New Detroit!

We hope to be back soon with more!
