Professional Development

MAX Minutes with Gregg Simon and Grant Wainscott to Focus on New and Expanding Companies in Metro Atlanta

February 28, 2021

What do Microsoft, Papa John’s, Amazon, RYSE Interactive, General Mills, Zillow, HelloFresh, and The Home Depot have in common? These are just a few of the companies that have chosen to expand or locate a major operation in metro Atlanta in the past year. Pandemic notwithstanding, these and other new business investments confirm that metro Atlanta continues to be a national hot spot for new and expanding employers and that Georgia’s overall reputation as the #1 state for business is well-earned.

Gregg Simon, Senior Vice President of Project and Partner Development, Economic Development, and Grant Wainscott, Vice President of Ecosystem Expansion for the Metro Atlanta Chamber, will join MAX to share the latest on companies moving in or expanding here and how the Atlanta region’s workforce has played a major role in attracting new business investment. In addition, they will discuss current and emerging workforce needs that metro Atlanta’s new or expanding employers have, needs that our region’s workforce partners can work to collectively address.

Join us on March 5th, 9:00 AM, for a timely and virtual conversation.
