What Cities Should Include in Their Pitch to Become the Second Amazon HQ
Amazon has selected a short-list of cities to be in the running to become the tech giants second headquarters. Digital Media Strategist John Boitnott shares his advice for these cities crafting their pitch to become the next hub for Amazon.
"I would highlight the airport," says Boitnott. "The south has been left behind a little." He thinks Atlanta or other southern cities with accessible airports are front runners.
