Douglas County EDC

We work together with others in the community to solve the challenges that business leaders encounter, inspiring and connecting community leaders in support of business-friendly initiatives, and seeking out and raising up the next generation of local leadership. We are a catalyst for growth within the local business community, but that growth shows in larger ways: not as a creator of jobs but as a partner in growing the businesses and business leaders who create the jobs that strengthen our communities. We believe that the health of the business community and the health of the larger community in which it lives are inextricable. And our work – providing the tools that businesses need to succeed – is central to the success of the community as a whole. We partner with elected officials, the private sector and economic development professionals to shape and provide healthy business policies for the region.
