Invest Buffalo Niagara, ESD, and ECIDA are putting together a joint proposal. Brian Higgins is onboard. Even if we don't stand a chance, do you think it will be a good exercise in self-reflection on the area's strengths and weaknesses compared to the country?
Then, you have the growth of Dronetech occurring in CNY. So, it would be nice if it could be a regional thing, but I don't know if that would work for Amazon.
Just curious, but what would be some sites in the city or area that would work? I also wonder if Niagara Falls could be an option given its proximity to Toronto, the Golden Horseshoe and the tourism on both sides of the Niagara River. It could help revitalize that city and the area.
