This zoom comes with no awkward silences ✇

Big fan of the sound, not so much the virtual meeting tool. Mercedes Benz US International (MBUSI) is zooming into Vance, Alabama with an expansion that will add nearly 400 jobs and electric cars. MBUSI is partnering with Birmingham construction management company Graham & Company for the $53.6M project. Find out what else the new plant will bring to our city.

Off to a running start(up) 💻

Immediate’s tools help improve financial wellness and eliminate cycles of debt. On the other hand, QuantHub aids businesses in using AI to hire and upskill a high-performing workforce. Watch the talent unfold when you register for the event.

Party like it’s 1999 🎉

However, the venue also has a multitude of beautiful rooms to host every type of event. Learn more about how you can book a COVID-19 safe event today.

Hoover is (hop)pin’ 🍻

Some people think the key to being a Birmingham business wiz is knowing everything about our amazing tech scene, but you’d be remiss to not learn about what’s happening in the brewery business. We’re very hoppy to report that Hoover and other areas of the city are welcoming new breweries to the neighborhood.
