This win-win partnership is exactly why I worked hard and lobbied Info to come to Charleston.This investment is not only going to pay off in dividends, but it is also going to help rebrand the business community in West Virginia.”

Innovative companies like Infor diversify and strengthen our economy and create good paying jobs that West Virginians can fill. Infor’s investment in our state is proof that we can check all of the boxes for companies looking to expand, which is why I met with Infor multiple times over the past few years to make clear that West Virginia as the perfect place to do business. Congratulations to Infor on their new location and I look forward to seeing great things from the Charleston office.”
