Governor Laura Kelly today announced that Kansas attracted the most private business investment per capita of any state in the country in 2022 and will receive the nation’s foremost economic development award, the Governor’s Cup from Site Selection magazine, for the second year in a row. For more than three decades, Site Selection has awarded the Governor’s Cup to the state with the most capital investment. In 2012, Site Selection established a second category for the state with the most qualified projects per capita. This allows states with smaller populations experiencing economic success to be recognized. Only one state is awarded this prestigious award annually.
