Relocation & Expansion Assistance
NCED’s business development team works hard to assist companies with relocations and expansions. They are currently negotiating with 20 business prospects that expect to make a decision within the next 90 days about relocating to Nevada. If they commit to Nevada, those 20 companies could represent more than 2,000 jobs and more than $350 million in capital investment for the state.
