“Business leaders need to know our diverse economy is fueled by small, midsized, and multinational companies. No matter the industry or focus, this is a place where you can reach world-class potential. We have tangible resources like TheCincinnatiExperience.com, REDICincinnati.com, as well as the Chamber’s platform, Hello Cincy.”
“We have a tremendous opportunity to gain from and give to this region. We believe workers in the Cincinnati region will benefit from using our technology, some of the best in the world and in line with principles of the Industry 4.0.”
"The Cincinnati region is in an “ideal economic situation” thanks to competitive state income tax rates, which hover around five percent, compared to nine percent in places like Connecticut. And as momentum builds around projects like the Amazon hub at CVG, steadily low commercial rents will help us compete with expensive markets like Charlotte, Nashville, and even NYC.”
“The City of Harrison’s relationship with REDI has proven incredibly valuable. Their staff has provided timely and authoritative assistance for company projects small and large in our community. REDI’s link to JobsOhio has created a local-regional-state team that provides answers and gets results. The professionalism demonstrated by REDI has given Harrison an opportunity to tell its unique story within our greater region. We appreciate their leadership.”
"REDI impressed me on multiple levels. We're loving it. Needless to say we are extremely satisfied with the results."
“By default, our team has been virtually placed over the last couple of years, but as we grew the business, it got to the point where having a home base made sense. With Cincinnati, it’s similar to the Amazon approach — where you can reach millions of people in one day. If you take Cincinnati as a hub from a biotech standpoint, you’re one tank of gas away from Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Lexington, Ohio State, Cleveland Clinic — places that collectively represent billions of dollars in federal funding.”
