Recensioner i media

“In the International Business (IB) field there is an increasing emphasis on the societal impacts of IB (including its interactions with government policies and geopolitical relationships), and on the role of IB at the level of cities. This book nicely brings these themes together through some rich case study comparisons.”John Cantwell, Distinguished Professor, Rutgers University, US“As the saying goes, “all politics is local”. This book brings an extremely useful collection of stories of regional / city foreign direct investment experiences. Fascinating real-life stories told by experts from different regions of the world, inviting a reflection on challenges and successes. And they are fun to read too!”Victor do Prado, SciencesPo Paris, former Director of Council and Trade Negotiations Committee at the WTO“The authors have put together a remarkable collage of FDI case studies on a city/regional level that can serve as roadmap and offer invaluable lessons to many local and regional IPA’s on how to focus resources, shape strategy and win in the highly competitive FDI attraction contest.”Viktor Mizo, Vice President Government Affairs at Kostal Group and former CEO of Invest in Macedonia“FDI has the potential to reinvent cities and regions, and this book captures that dynamic perfectly. Its practical and academic perspectives make it an indispensable guide for understanding the evolving world of investment.”Andrew Wrobel, Chief Reinvention Officer, Emerging Europe
