🏢 A Hub of Innovation, Talent, and Opportunity. | Business in Focus
Tallahassee-Leon County recently earned a #4 metro ranking in the U.S. from Chmura Economics & Analytics, a recognition of its economic vitality, job creation, and strong growth potential. 📈
The region’s educated workforce, ranked #1 in Florida and #12 nationally, is fueling industries such as healthcare, IT, software development, and applied sciences, making it an attractive location for companies looking to expand.
Collaboration between government, universities, and the business community continues to strengthen. FSU, FAMU, and the MagLab serve as anchors for innovation, advancing research while supporting commercialization, training, and entrepreneurship.
Hosting the 2025 Motor, Drive Systems & Magnetics (MDSM) Conference positioned the region on the global stage, bringing researchers, decision-makers, and corporate leaders together to see firsthand the unique assets of MagLab, Danfoss Turbocor Compressors, and other local partners.
Excitement is already building for MDSM 2026, scheduled for March 3–5, 2026, featuring National MagLab tours and a strong lineup of speakers from Danfoss, the U.S. Department of Energy, FSU, and the American Resources Corporation.
