"There remain plenty of examples of talent moving into our region, if we care enough to notice. There's the recent move of the U.S. headquarters of espresso machine manufacturer Saeco to Greater Cleveland. This half-billion dollar company has a 30 percent market share in Europe and is looking to grow in the U.S., and with more than two-thirds of North America's population within 500 miles of here, Saeco finds that it can deliver to 70 percent of their accounts within one day. The manufacturing base here offers expertise and a trained work force. And Cleveland's work ethic is much stronger. Next they want to host a large event that would draw attention to Cleveland as a center for coffee roasting and manufacturing, as well as the alternative spin-offs of coffee and underground culture."
