Advertorial sections - US examples (see also
special cluster reports below)
Advertorial sections are expected to be consistent
with the high editorial quality expectations of fDi subscribers, but are
not independently researched, written and edited by fDi staff. This
differs from sponsored research reports, which are independently developed
by fDi staff in cooperation with local officials, who may assist with
relevant introductions and market insights. Ask us about effective
ways to communicate the benefits of your region or service to fDi
subscribers.

Introduction from the Editor : Courtney
Fingar In just five short years, fDi has
established itself as the single most trusted source of information on
foreign direct investment. In 2006/2007 we intend to carry on doing more of
the same: investigating issues that concern foreign investors, talking to
leading corporate executives and government leaders, and highlighting the
many opportunities and risks that await investors around the world. We have
tracked legal disputes between foreign investors and host governments, as
well as the challenge to state incentives in the US, providing careful and
cogent analysis of the ramifications of these cases. We have interviewed and
profiled the leaders of such well-known companies as Ford, Dyson, Wal-Mart
and Boeing. We have also heard about the investment promotion plans of the
mayors of such cities as London, Athens and Seoul; the governors of US
states, Canadian provinces, and Chinese and Russian regions; cabinet-rank
officials in Indonesia, Nigeria and Hungary, among others; and the prime
ministers of the up-and-coming markets of Estonia, Lithuania and Malta. Our
access to business and political leaders is exceptional.
Throughout this year we will be adding to this top-notch
editorial content exhaustive but user-friendly web offering that will
compliment the print edition with hard data, sector and location rankings,
and practical tools for both corporate executives and IPAs.
Produced by the renowned Financial Times (FT) group, fDi
is the premier publication and for the business of globalization, and is
published on a bi-monthly basis with an ABC-certified circulation of over
15,500. Our experienced journalists and foreign correspondents provide
on-the-ground reporting of the issues and developments that corporate
executives must consider when making investment decisions. |
