Cities, counties, states, utilities, the federal government and other entities that promote economic development offer a large number of valuable incentive programs to growing companies.   To be eligible, a company must be planning an expansion project.

Generally, public officials define an "expansion project" as any capital investment in land, buildings, and/or equipment which creates and/or retains employment.

The investment can be a lease or purchase, and it does not matter if the company expands, renovates, buys or leases an existing building or if it constructs a new building.

We at The Economic Development Group, Inc. (EDGe) are experts in procuring and administering incentives for growing companies. We have provided services in support of 83 expansion projects in 26 states, with offices in Indianapolis, Kansas City, St. Louis, Cincinnati and Nashville.
