“LiveXchange gives us the opportunity
to meet with people one-on-one, unlike
in a big-market setting where you’re
dealing with thousands of people and
you hope to bump into people who will
bring you business.”– Todd Dickerson, Vice President, Regional Growth
Partnership (Ohio)
“The quality of the folks I’m meeting
with, from the companies to the
consultants, have a genuine interest in
the region that I represent. This has
been very worthwhile and I’m sure
I’ll get a real ROI.”– Patty Horvatich, Vice President, Business Investment,
Pittsburgh Regional Alliance
“I have 13 appointments over two days
which is a fantastic opportunity to
get one-on-one in front of companies
and site consultants that have
active projects.”– Matt Harrington, Director, Piedmont Triad Partnership
