Georgia Chamber CEO Chris Clark: Being No. 1 Is Not Enough
For thirteen years straight, Area Development has ranked Georgia the nation's No. 1 state for business, a run no other state has matched. That did not happen by accident. It happened because governors and legislators made decisions over decades to keep Georgia competitive, because communities invested in infrastructure and economic developers built relationships around the world, because our universities and technical colleges turned out talent, and because the ports, the airport, the highways, and the rail network connected what Georgians make to customers who wanted it.
