This SiteNet Dispatch is sponsored by Kentucky Cabinet for Economic Development.

Musical chairs was fun when you were a kid. But when you're trying to find the right location for your business, you have no time for games.

That's why the state legislature created the Kentucky Economic Development Partnership Board in 1992. With representatives from both the public and private sectors, the board oversees the Cabinet for Economic Development, independent of the push and pull of politics. That means you don't have to talk to an all-new staff every four years. No more musical chairs.

Most important, our people know their business — which is to help you with yours. Contact us at 800-626-2930 or visit us on the web at www.thinkkentucky.com.
