Scrutiny and screening of Chinese investment in the United States is not a new phenomenon, as a Site Selection Online Insider from 2012 entitled “ Get Out and Come Back Soon” illustrated in the wake of an episode known as the Ralls decision. Among the names watched closely then and now is Huawei, whose “quiet domination” of China’s semiconductor supply chain is the topic of a report released in April by the Mercator Institute for China Studies.

Whether your company’s leaders are appalled or pleased by the dismantling of diversity, equity and inclusion programs at higher education institutions, The Chronicle of Higher Education is doing you a favor by keeping track. The publication is documenting “changes that public colleges have made to offices, jobs, training, diversity statements and other DEI-related activities as the result of bills, executive orders, system mandates and other state-level actions since January 2023” by tracking those changes by state and by institution. As of May 30, The Chronicle had tracked changes at 159 college campuses in 23 states, including newly added changes to the University of North Carolina system. |

In December the “No grey” project from Fiat, Twister Film and Leo Burnett agency earned the Grand Prix 2023 from the Art Directors Club of Europe. “Operation 'No Grey' has managed to turn a marketing idea — no more gray cars — that usually only involves the marketing department and trade journalists into a memorable and spectacular event,” said the ADCE judges. A piece of communication that spread spontaneously all over the world and managed, for the first time, to communicate Fiat's main core value to everyone: Italian-ness.” The YouTube video featuring Fiat CEO Olivier Francois shows a 600E being dipped into a giant vat of paint by a crane and emerging a delightful orange in the middle of an Italian piazza. It has been viewed more than 10 million times.
Among the most recent facility investments by the Stellantis-owned brand are a 500-job, $212 million manufacturing plant that started production in December in Tafraoui, Oran, Algeria, and a 1,000-job R&D site in Hyderabad, Telangana, India, announced in 2020 when the company was Fiat Chrysler. Stellantis continues to invest at its Mirafiori Automotive Park hub in Turin even as production slowed and some jobs were cut earlier this year.
