What our clients think
Strategic FDI Targeting
Parker Poe has been very pleased with the services that ResearchFDI has provided for our FDI development efforts internationally. The ResearchFDI team has consistently taken the time to understand our goals and tailor their approach to meet our needs. Their strategic targeting and efficient prospecting has resulted in the identification of and access to a number of foreign based companies who are genuinely interested in expanding into the United States. This has saved us significant time and resources in today’s competitive market. ResearchFDI’s reliability and commitment to delivering results make them an indispensable partner. We highly recommend them to any organization looking for support in accessing FDI attraction support.
High-Level Trade Show Support
I highly recommend partnering with ResearchFDI on trade show preparations. We have worked with Bruce and his team for several years. They also confirm high level, productive meetings with C-Suite executives. This is a great resource for economic development lead generation.”
Exceptional FDI Meetings
The Southwestern Ontario Marketing Alliance (SOMA) has utilized Research FDI on numerous occasions over the past several years. Our experience has been exceptional and Research FDI has either met or exceeded our contracted number of meetings per international trade show or investment mission. The high quality meetings they have been able to arrange for our FDI activities is a big reason why we keep coming back to Research FDI.
