Consultant Connect has selected Joe Max Higgins Jr., CEO of the Golden Triangle Development LINK, as one of the organization’s 2016 North American Top 50 Economic Developers.
The economic development professionals selected were nominated by their colleagues in both the economic development industry and the site consultant community for excellent practices, innovation and success in building the communities they serve. Each selected developer will be featured on the weekly podcast, From the Ground Up: North America’s Top 50 Economic Developers, to share their expertise in the field of economic development and leadership insights they’ve learned along the way.
David Rubarger of the Community Development Foundation of Tupelo and Jim Flanagan of the DeSoto County Economic Development Council were the only other Mississippi developers included in the list.
