11/29/23
以全球互联互通闻名, 熟练的劳动力和负担能力, Houston has emerged as a magnet for 国际皇冠HGA010官方下载es aiming to expand their operations and capitalize on the city's unique advantages. 靠近主要港口, 包括休斯顿港, and access to international flights via George Bush Intercontinental Airport, which was recently ranked among the top 10 best airports in the nation, Houston can provide critical resources that other major metros can’t, making it a premier location for 国际皇冠HGA010官方下载es. In 2022, Houston’s top trading partners included Mexico, 中国, 韩国, 巴西和荷兰, according to the Partnership’s Global Houston report.  Houston’s rich cultural tapestry also contributes to its global appeal. The Bayou City is one of the most diverse cities in the nation, where one-in-four residents are foreign born. A testament to the city’s ever-growing diversity, Houston’s foreign-born population grew by 370,在过去的十年里,大约有1000名居民, with international migration accounting for one-third of those gains, according to the Partnership’s monthly report.  Houston is also home to the Texas Medical Center (TMC), which boasts world-class institutions and facilities and serves as a catalyst for cutting-edge research and development in the region, 增添了这座城市的魅力. 10月, TMC开放了TMC3协作大楼, the first phase of its groundbreaking 37-acre campus dubbed Helix Park, further attracting businesses to curate and grow their ideas at the heart of the largest life science destination in the world.   Other significant infrastructure includes the Houston Spaceport, which is anchored by many leading aerospace companies including Axiom Space, 柯林斯航空航天和直觉机器公司.  休斯顿最近被评为世界第一.最有魅力的U.S. city for foreign multinationals to do business in the annual Financial Times-Nikkei ranking.  “This ranking is a testament to Houston’s position as a thriving global city with a diverse mix of industries that are attractive to international investment,” said Partnership President and CEO Bob Harvey in a statement. “Houston has long been a global gateway and is seen as having an inviting business climate. Rankings like this bolster our case as we continue to attract companies from around the world.” 被称为休斯敦的前门, the Partnership actively works to forge powerful business connections across the globe. 2023年第三季度, the Partnership played a crucial role in driving three international companies to Houston, including Turkey-based Aksa Power Generation, a portable industrial generator manufacturer, Cimsa, 一家土耳其水泥制造商和科尼克公司, 一家韩国汽车零部件制造商.  另外, 来自比利时的John Cockerill Hydrogen, a steering committee member of the Partnership’s Houston 皇冠HGA010官方下载 Transition Initiative, recently announced its expansion to the Houston-area with a new hydrogen manufacturing facility in Baytown.  合作伙伴中国生物, a leading biotech company headquartered in Beijing, 中国, also announced the opening of its Center for Bioprocessing at Levit Green, Houston’s 53-acre master-planned life sciences district. 了解更多关于 what makes Houston a global city.
