What an exciting year we had in 2023! We were honored to partner with our clients around the world as they navigated their strategic growth and investments. In total, we supported the creation of over 9,200 jobs and capital investment in excess of USD $9.5 billion across a diverse array of critical sectors. The list of projects also represented foreign direct investment from and into over 19 countries!

Through the Michael P Hickey Foundation, we built on our commitment to provide opportunities to those who dedicate themselves to serving and building our communities through economic development scholarships. Meanwhile, our global team expanded the library of thought leadership through the Hickey Institute releasing a number of reports and analytics on critical industry trends driving location strategy, site selection, incentives, talent, and supply chain, among others.

We’re excited and optimistic for 2024 as the year is already off to a fast start! Thank you to all of our friends, clients, partners, teammates, community leaders, and all that help move the industry forward!
