NORTH PORT – As corporate America evaluates the impact of COVID-19 on future expansion, experts agree North Port and other communities like it are in a sweet spot for growth. That was one of several underlying messages to emerge from the fifth annual North Port Real Estate Summit on Friday.
Ron Starner, executive vice president of Site Selection Magazine, said that the shift to remote work prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic will continue, and companies are looking beyond large metropolitan areas to ones such as the North Port-Sarasota-Bradenton metropolitan statistical area when they seek to expand.
“Instead of people chasing jobs, jobs are now chasing people,” Starner said “It’s better to be North Port now than it is to be New York, LA, all the big cities.”
