Regions as the Building Blocks of the Global Economy
Nissan is the economic champion of Nashville; Intel locates as easily in Ireland or Israel, Chandler, Arizona or Chengdu, China. It used to be said that, “what’s good for GM is good for America.” Now, this might read, “what’s good for GM is good for Michigan, but what’s good for Toyota is good for Kentucky…”

Indeed, regions have become the building blocks of the global economy. Capital, information and ideas cross borders; and the economic prosperity of a city depends on its ability to compete with other cities around the globe.

REMI developed Policy Insight® and TranSight® to better demonstrate how policy decisions affect jobs, income and output in geographic areas such as a county, metropolitan area, or state. REMI-Northwest is the company that puts these powerful tools to work to answer your policy questions.
