| Locating a port-related technology company at the Port of Los Angeles offers many advantages for an emerging or established company: 1) The Los Angeles/Long Beach port complex is one of the world’s largest “petri dishes” for testing emerging technologies, and is home to many port tenant companies anxious to help test those technologies. 2) Forward-looking environmental and clean energy policies developed by the State of California and City of Los Angeles are establishing the standards by which all other ports will be measured in the future. Proving a technology at the Port of Los Angeles makes it saleable virtually around the world. 3) The Port represents a large, immediately accessible base of potential customers. 4) Ten major Port expansion/redevelopment projects are currently underway which will require new technologies to comply with mandated environmental and security requirements; 5) The City of Los Angeles, of which the port-adjacent communities of San Pedro and Wilmington are a part, is one of the most open, dynamic and diverse cities in the world. 6) As the entertainment, manufacturing and international trade capital of the country, Los Angeles has a deep pool of skilled, creative and innovative talent from which to draw when growing a company. 7) And, you can't beat the weather! |
