Atlanta, Triangle or N.Y.? Consultant Weighs in on GE's HQ Relocation
Monday, October 19th, 2015
Atlanta is the No. 1 contender to land GE's headquarters. But the fact that the Raleigh-Durham area is under serious consideration for a General Electric Co. headquarters sends a serious message, says John Boyd, principal at New Jersey-based The Boyd Company, which provides independent corporate selection consultation services.
“Even if Raleigh finishes second in this project, it will give the state enhanced credibility,” he says. “It signifies Raleigh’s chance as a true competitor in the international high-tech industry.”
