Last update: 7 hours ago

Port & Logistics: Port of Greater Baton Rouge executive director Jay Hardman will retire Dec. 1 after 26 years, with deputy director Greg Johnson set to take over—an inflection point for a port that’s grown into the nation’s No. 7 by tonnage. Energy & LNG: Baker Hughes and Venture Global are expanding their LNG partnership with new orders tied to Louisiana infrastructure, including Cloud Connector Pipeline compression systems and Plaquemines LNG expansion liquefaction hardware. Local Economy Watch: Shreveport-Bossier’s economy shows warning signs, with an economist citing rising unemployment pressure, flat sales tax trends and a cooling housing market. Gov/Business Ops: Louisiana OMV customer service centers close Monday for system modernization and staff training, with online services also disrupted over the weekend. AI & Data Centers: A nationwide “AI Data Center Revolt” bus tour stopped in Boyce, with protesters pressing for no taxpayer funding, limits on government NDAs, and safeguards for public safety. Business Growth & Succession: Harahan-based Laitram is scaling into a $1.5 billion business as the next generation steps up leadership. Healthcare & Rural Access: Candidates in Louisiana’s 5th District are emphasizing rural hospital investment and prescription drug affordability as voters weigh healthcare costs.
