BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA--November 23, 2010--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The industrial economy in the U.S. and Canada is "coming back from the dead," according to recently developed data on capital and maintenance projects that have been reactivated after being placed on hold or even cancelled, leaders from Industrial Info Resources told about 300 attendees at its 2011 Industrial Market Outlook held last week in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. "We have identified an important recent trend in the U.S. and Canada where industrial projects that had been placed on hold or even cancelled have, in fact, been restarted," IIR President and CEO Ed Lewis said.
