E. Roy Budd, executive director of Energize-ECI Inc. announced the regional economic development partnership, along with ECI member area economic development officials, planned and participated in a business development sales trip to Dallas, Texas, Nov. 11-12.
Among those on the trip were Terry Murphy, vice president Muncie-Delaware County Economic Development Alliance; Bill Bradley, executive director Jay County Development Corporation; and Budd.
"The purpose of the Dallas trip was to familiarize a new group of site selection consultants about the many competitive advantages offered to new business investment, expansion and consolidation in East Central Indiana," Budd said. "We want to be top-of-mind when business investment projects are given the green light to active status. Right now, the economy has forced many business projects to be put on hold. I think we proved our case that East Central Indiana has much to offer for new business investment -- and is worthy of serious consideration."
