Economic Development
The Economic Development program markets Guilford County and the Piedmont Triad Region to facilitate area development. Emphasis is placed on retaining and expanding existing industry and attracting new business opportunities in emerging sectors. As part of its economic development strategy, the county supports area economic development agencies that share the county’s economic development goals of promoting substantial capital investment, high-paying job creation, and special industries that feature advanced technologies, environmental sustainability, and downtown Central Business District investment.
