2Q15 First Quarter Industrial Market Report

First Quarter 2015
Industrial Market Report

A usual slow start to the year -

Once again, the northern Nevada industrial market took a breather in the first quarter. Historically, Q1 is a slow quarter as companies are just gearing up for annual moves. Decisions to close operations happen quicker than decisions to move and expand sometimes resulting in negative absorption in the first quarter. With few closures and still good market activity, Q1 2015 exhibited stronger numbers than prior year first quarters. Brokers, developers and contractors are all busy and overall market activity remains strong. It appears 2015 will be another banner year for the northern Nevada industrial market.....

Reno Providing Thought Leadership and Innovation through Local Events

While we all may think of ourselves as outside of the box thinkers, what do we do to truly inspire?  How do we help the collaborative effort?  How do we create our niche as the go-to company? How do we hit targets we may have thought we could never get to?  How do we turn our “small” ideas into something that we know can impact a community, a region, a state, a nation, a world? How?

Well, here in Reno, there has been a groundswell of activity to answer just that question – How?

Starting with the University of Nevada TEDx event January 25, to the Project Vesto competition February 8-10, the Startup Reno Weekend February 22-24, the Reno Hackathon March 2-3, and the latest TEDxReno event announced for April 26, northern Nevada is becoming a think tank for individuals to have a venue to express their creativity in the hopes of developing the next great idea.

These innovative and collaborative forums provide individuals and teams the opportunity to not only get together, but inspire one another.  If we continue down this fostering path, northern Nevada, and our economic development, will continue to ascend.

The benefit to northern Nevada is the growing commitment to helping grow the community with new business ideas, and more importantly new businesses, which will help continue our upward tick regarding the economic issues we are continually rising above.  New ideas, new innovation, new businesses, new education, new jobs.

With education surpassing jobs as a main concern in a survey published by the Retail Association of Nevada and posted on RGJ, the goals of thought leadership, innovation, collaboration, and education are prevalent in the area.  Events and organizations that foster this type of leadership should be commended, as we will all benefit from these efforts in northern Nevada.

NAI Alliance is all in for northern Nevada.  We live here.  We play here.  We work here.  We will grow here.
