In Orlando, Florida, industry experts suggest that The Walt Disney Co. may invest a significant portion of its projected $60 billion in the city. John Gerner, the managing director of Leisure Business Advisors based in Richmond, Virginia, believes that a large portion of Disney’s international expenditure promised for the next decade will be directed towards Central Florida. Gerner cites a discussion between CEO Bob Iger and Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro in early 2023, where they mentioned a $17 billion allocation for Florida as part of the $60 billion investment plan.
