Baltimore, the best place to do business.

CIVIC GROUP, FOUNDER & MANAGING PARTNER

"Our favorite place to play, is the affordable mixed-income, middle-income area. That's our specialty. I believe that the growth of that middle bracket inside city boundaries can provide the growth helps us accomplish impactful missions, things like recreation centers, vibrant retail corridors while meeting our city's affordable housing needs.

FEARLESS, CEO

"What I love about Baltimore is, it's a space where, if you want to make an impact, you just have to roll up your sleeves and do it. As long as you're authentic, people will embrace you and support you. I felt that from day one. Baltimore has tremendous assets, we're in the middle of Fort Meade and Aberdeen Proving Grounds and have world-class education, financial and healthcare institutions."

MASON DIXON FOODS, FOUNDER & OWNER

"Baltimore is a great place to have a business because real estate is affordable and steady. If you're a small business and you're looking to grow, you need a stable environment where you know what your rent is going to be and what the labor market looks like."

THE OUTLOOK COMPANY, CEO

"I think the big attraction in Baltimore is that it’s a field of dreams. If you’re thinking about coming here, you will find more support than anywhere else because the ‘want to’ is so high. This city is always looking for the next great thing."
