Ga. Gov, Kemp pitches Georgia at World Economic Forum
[GPB - Georgia Public Broadcasting] ATLANTA — Gov. Brian Kemp is talking up Georgia to foreign business and political bigwigs for the second January in a row.

Kemp is spending the week in Switzerland attending the World Economic Forum, meeting business executives and political leaders and taking part in discussion panels.
Surrounds himself with globalist 'Never Trumpers.'
"We get a lot of value being able to see, talk to, and pitch a lot of people in one place," Kemp told Capitol Beat Tuesday in an exclusive interview from Davos, Switzerland. "The exposure we get is really helpful selling the state."

The trip includes meetings both with executives from companies with an existing presence in Georgia and those that might be interested in setting up shop in the Peach State.

On Tuesday, the governor met with officials from Korean automaker Hyundai, which is building a massive electric vehicle manufacturing plant west of Savannah, and multinational technology company Cisco, which has offices in Midtown Atlanta. Tomorrow, the state will host a luncheon reception for 25 companies.

Kemp also participated in a panel discussion on the EV industry, which has become a major player in Georgia with both the Hyundai plant and a manufacturing facility Rivian is building east of Atlanta along the Interstate 20 corridor.

#3 
Given WEF position on Trump and Kemp's failure to honestly address the 2020 GA. Voter Fraud or Fulton Co. DA issues.

Why do I feel he is collecting on a well earned debt, some Kudos and etc...

#4 By making that 'pitch', the trip qualifies for taxpayer payments - the State's bidness, donchaknow.

#5 Trying to seduce more jobs for his taxpayers, which is part of his job. The electric vehicle ones, unfortunately, are not likely to last long term.
