LONGMONT — For John Cody, working to attract companies to Longmont is a never-ending battle to keep up with the changing times.
“Two things primarily are different today: It’s more complex, and it’s more competitive,” said Cody, president and CEO of the Longmont Area Economic Council.
Longmont competes with the rest of the world in trying to attract companies. But domestically, Cody says, Longmont has an advantage that sets the city and region apart.
The LAEC is one of nine partners with the Metro Denver Economic Development Corp. that promotes economic development regionally.
About 20 years ago, the partners signed a formal agreement that they would not poach businesses from one another and would not disparage one another when talking to companies. More here.
