On September 2017, Amazon announced it wants a second home outside Seattle. The news have resulted in a fierce bidding war to lure Amazon — and the thousands of high-paying jobs — using a combination of tax breaks and other incentives. We intend to provide information about Amazon's requests and any updated on the decision-making process.
==Request for Proposal==
In choosing the location for HQ2, Amazon has a preference for:
Metropolitan areas with more than one million people
A stable and business-friendly environment
Urban or suburban locations with the potential to attract and retain strong technical talent
Communities that think big and creatively when considering locations and real estate options
HQ2 could be, but does not have to be:
An urban or downtown campus
A similar layout to Amazon’s Seattle campus
A development-prepped site. We want to encourage states/provinces and communities to think
creatively for viable real estate options, while not negatively affecting our preferred timeline
