When Giants do go global, however, a long-haul flight is usually involved. Up from 46 percent, 58 worked in the Middle East, and 46 percent, up from 37, worked in Central and South America. Asia attracted 82 percent. As far as predicted growth, China is still champ—46 percent say so. But 28 percent see the United Arab Emirates heating up, and 65 percent more firms think the Middle East in general will see more growth. Europe could also improve, 27 percent predict.
