Be involved
We are the entry point for companies as they consider a location. They compare the Gateway Region to regions across the globe. It makes our case easier when we can pick up the phone and call our partners to get the answers that the company needs right away. If a company is visiting and could benefit from your expertise, we might even bring you along.
Grow your business
You’ll benefit indirectly from our work. By serving companies like Rolls-Royce, Sabra, and Amazon.com, we’re doing our part to secure a steady flow of new jobs and economic activity into the region. And when we work with existing companies like Honeywell and Wood Fuel Developers, we make sure they stay here. And where do you come in? These companies or their employees are going to buy your products or services.
Stay informed
Our partners benefit from the knowledge we accumulate in working new and existing business projects. They have access to our industry and market research, and they’re the first to know about the latest events and company locations that move and shake our regional economy.
