PRESS RELEASES
We are also posting more coverage in our EDA newsroom: n Press Release — Peak Perfomance
S I T E S E L E C T I O N MARCH 2018 1
Peak PerformanceHigh-tech �rms striving for growth in California scale new heights in San Bernardino County.
When the Milken Institute named the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario MSA in Southern California one of the Best
Performing Cities in America, the news did not surprise executives at General Atomics and Aemerge RedPak.
�ese two high-tech firms decided to invest into expanding their operations in San Bernardino County long before the Milken announcement.
“Southern California has a lot of aerospace industry,” says Gary Bender, vice president of flight operations for defense contractor and drone-maker General Atomics. “We are able to find local people with experience in the aviation business. We started with one airport and fewer than employees. We have grown to two airports and close to , employees in the High Desert, including an operation for advanced design in Adelanto.”

The County government has been very helpful. We have done a lot of construction at both airports and Adelanto. The County has always helped us secure the permits we need.
-Gary Bender, Vice President of Flight Operations, General Atomics
We selected the High Desert because it o�ers proximity to the high population center of LA, access to strong workforce, and a business-friendly environment.”
