What many people don’t know is just what a business-friendly city Nashville is.

Its robust economy and talented workforce have made the city one of the top 10 in America for job and population growth. This commercial viability can also be seen through its fourth-place ranking on the Milken Institute’s best-performing large-city index.

There is also a growing tech sector here that continuously draws in an increasing number of businesses and workers. Analysts predict that Nashville is on the way to becoming a “true tech hub”.

For lifestyle, the city even ranks as one of the best places in Tennessee to live. You’ll even see it make it into the running as one of the best cities to live in all of America. It has beautiful hot summers, great nightlife, and a lower cost of living compared to many US cities.

Why a Nashville virtual office offers an ideal setting for businesses

Tennessee and all of the leading cities of the state are very pro-business.

When control of the city or the state changes hands, incoming governments of either color are keen to keep local and national companies content. That’s why so many businesses choose a virtual office in Tennessee.

Thriving business climate

According to the business channel, CNBC, Tennessee is the third-best state in the U.S. for business. Real estate data firm Clever ranked Nashville in the top 15 cities to open a startup.

AZBigMedia rated the very active business community here highly, ranking it the best place to network with founders.

Diverse market

Nashville has a robust and diverse economy. Some of its most important industry sectors are:

● Construction

● Education and health services

● Finance

● Leisure and hospitality

● Manufacturing

● Professional and business services

● Trade, transportation, and utilities

The sectors have seen major growth in the last 10 years. In more recent times, there has been very fast, double-digit growth in the professional and business services sector.

Global trade opportunities

The city is well-connected and ideal for businesses that want to go global, another great reason to choose a virtual address in Nashville.

The city’s rail system links to 20 states, making domestic travel easy. For international travel, Nashville’s airport is close to the city center.

Nashville’s port makes it an important cargo hub, too. The port is the end destination for many direct shipping routes heading to America.

Its substantial storage capacity is a major selling point for importers and exporters. They have plenty of space to store their goods before they're transported nationwide and overseas.

The local Chamber of Commerce expects strong growth in exports from Nashville’s port. They have even predicted that the city will become a “front-runner in global trade”.

Tax benefits

Tennessee is one of the few states in the US with no state income tax.

Its corporation tax is just 6.5% and its property taxes are among the lowest in the country. The sales tax of 7% ranks 14^th on the Tax Foundation’s State Business Tax Climate Index.

You can be confident that if you establish yourself in Nashville, you’ll be able to keep more of your hard-earned profits.

Healthcare capital

Nashville has more than 500 healthcare companies, 17 of them publicly traded. The sector generates $92bn of revenue and employs 570,000 people.

Of all the major sectors in the state, analysts predict health care will add the most jobs at 1.9% a year (80,100 jobs) by 2030.

Supporting them are 400 professional services firms that specialize in working with the health sector across the U.S.

Two of the biggest healthcare brands in the city are Optum and SmileDirectClub.

Tech hub

Nashville offers tax breaks and other incentives to bring tech companies into the city. The city and state are also making major infrastructure investments to support the sector and attract even more firms.

Big tech names already in the city and state include tech advocates Asurion and Revive. Tech advocate company BuiltIn lists roughly 1,000 promising tech companies based in the Nashville area.

Business-friendly environment

For companies investing $500,000 in the city creating at least 25 new jobs, there are numerous opportunities to recoup costs and acquire new funding.
