### Boston Business Leaders Plan Expansion in 2025
Expansion is on the horizon for businesses in Boston this year, as leaders express plans to invest in talent, technology, and real estate, according to a new study by KPMG LLP. The *KPMG 2025 Perspectives: Local Insights from Boston* report indicates that the region is on track for significant growth.
Seventy-two percent of organizations plan to expand their commercial real estate footprint over the next 12 to 18 months, while 85% intend to grow their workforce. Additionally, 87% expect to make a strategic deal at some point in 2025. To meet the demands of this expansion, businesses are exploring creative solutions such as prioritizing AI implementation and offering alternative work schedules.
“Industry optimism matched with a strong workforce is what’s fueling growth here in Boston,” said John Capone, KPMG’s New England and Upstate New York managing partner. “However, business leaders must remain vigilant over wavering economic conditions and make strategic plans to change course if necessary.”
