Consultant Events

Site selection consultants remain a vital source of high-quality projects for Missouri. In FY 2025, we continued to engage this influential audience through targeted in-market visits, strategic hospitality events, and ongoing relationship-building efforts that keep Missouri top of mind for future opportunities.

Industry Events

As the economy continues to evolve, industry events offer valuable insights that help us stay ahead of emerging trends and refine our marketing strategies. These gatherings not only strengthen our messaging but also serve as touchpoints for direct engagement with companies and site selection consultants.

Trade Shows

These focused events offer exceptional access to private-sector executives, giving us the opportunity to connect directly with key leaders. Each event provides valuable face-to-face conversations and consistently results in new leads in our pipeline.
