The World is Connected by Contacts.   

Contacts lead to Contracts.

People often talk of "degrees of separation."  The success of any business is proportionate to how well connected your people are to decision and policy makers.

There is no substitute for high value friendships and contacts.  Whether opening new markets, seeking funding, or looking to acquire, long term relationships with the right people mean getting business and keeping business.

The strength of the company is RELATIONSHIPS.

All Owners and CEO's know their companies.

- What is needed to grow, but may not be happening?

- What has been lost in the inertia of daily business over time?

- What is not percolating from inside because of "comfort zone".

International Business Development Group leverages its own high value friendship and contacts along with considerable experience, skills, resourcefulness, and innovative thinking to help its clients meet their objectives.  We help to identify needs and provide solutions that create value for our clients... and for their customers.

Improving the value of a community

Place-making is branding the collective real estate of a community or municipality for the purpose of stimulating the economy, jobs, and investment for the ultimate purpose of creating value.

The strategies recognize that a "place" being "made" requires a collaboration and the cooperation of developers, real estate investors, stakeholders, banks, local business owners, community leaders, government, etc. who all figure out how to create value collaboratively.

The topic is widely known as part of attracting the CREATIVE CLASS to former industrial cities which need to be re-imagined in order for people to flourish and for economic development to occur.

We began this process in Long Island City with a Community Symposium February 27/28, 2013.   Johns Hopkins University is a center of study and application of Place-making, and its Associate Professor of the Carey Business School assisted along with our collague, David Wilk, an authority on Place-making and Corporate Value Creation.

Facts and Assumptions that Support Investment in Growth and Business Development Today. 

The NOW Factor

Various Local, Regional, and National markets and categories of customers served by your company  will benefit from an unprecedented SURGE of underlying economic support based on FIVE FACTORS that are happening right NOW.

The First factor that is changing the business community, due to special commitments by the Trump Administration, there is expected to be a $3.0 Trillion surge in re-patriated capital to the United States.

The Second factor is that Construction and Infrastructure projects in the United States will benefit from  both Tax law changes as well as re-patriation of capital.

The Third factor that is unique is that the 421 A program in New York was dormant for over a year and construction commitments dropped. That is now reversed and the New York State Affordable Housing Act will mean major commitments to large scale commitments of all types.

The Fourth factor is that ENERGY Costs are increasing, refocusing attention on efficiency, staying local and buying local ..

The Fifth factor is that the recent changes in banking regulations will mean that Community Banks will be less regulated and therefore able to support the local business community….lifting the barriers that

have prevented small business growth since Dodd-Frank was passed.

Failure to take advantage of the inevitable surge in demand will leave your company in a status quo position, or loss of market share.
