RivCoED is at the 2025 Industrial Asset Management Council (IAMC) Fall Forum this week in Indiana, where we’re connecting with corporate real estate leaders and other economic developers from across the country. One of the highlights for us: meeting in person with a couple of national companies we've been supporting with their expansion projects right in Riverside County. It’s always rewarding to take those conversations beyond the screen and hear firsthand how our region’s workforce, strategic advantages, and business-friendly climate are making a real impact. Events like IAMC are a great reminder that economic development is all about relationships. We’re proud to be here, sharing Riverside County’s story and learning from others who are shaping the future of corporate real estate. #RivCoED #RivCoNow #IAMC2025Indy #IAMCFallForum #EconomicDevelopment #CommercialRealEstate #SiteSelection #CRE #BusinessExpansion
