We all know it.
Industrial development projects can be risky.
There’s no place for doubt.
You need the latest market data and robust analysis even if you already have a location in mind. You need to reach an internal consensus, convince stakeholders, and show the ROI is there.
Investors want to be sure there’s a skilled workforce in place, a developed business ecosystem and infrastructure, land, property, and readily available production materials. Unsurprisingly, researching your options can quickly become an expensive and time-consuming feat.
To facilitate this process, Valmiera Development Agency has launched an intuitive mapping and analysis tool that provides granular data on business, industries, economic indicators, demographics, labor force, education, real estate, and more to power your analysis.
- Compare the availability of production materials essential to your business
- Check the qualifications of the local labor force
- Compare properties
- Find useful contacts
- Share and export your research
InvestInValmiera.eu has it all.
The innovative data tool is powered by GIS Planning's industry-leading economic development and investment promotion software and managed by Valmiera Development Agency.
