Back by popular demand, year over year, John Greuling will join us to provide an update on Will County's economic outlook, trends, and developments.
Since 1981 the CED has provided businesses and local government with programs and services that have resulted in a more diversified Will County economy. As the only Countywide economic development organization, businesses benefit from a "one-stop shop" service delivery approach.
The CED is responsive to the specific needs of a company and is mindful of the "speed to market" track most projects follow today. Working relationships with local government allows the CED to provide guidance for companies not familiar with Will County.
The CED is a strategic partner in your business development project. Some of the programs, services and guidance we provide include:
- Business retention and expansion assistance
- Marketing to and recruiting new business
- Access to State, County and local government incentives
- Economic development events and conferences
- Community economic development training for local officials
- Information on available sites and buildings
- Demographic and labor force statistics
- Education and training resources
- Public and private utility information
- Comparative business cost analysis
- Development entitlement process
- Development project management from A to Z
- Federal, State and local government contacts and introductions
- Access to commercial and industrial brokers and developers
- Local, State and federal policy and program lobbying assistance
