It's the primary mission of more than 8,000 organizations in America - not counting chambers of commerce. It is the top priority of nearly every governor and mayor. However, it means different things to different people.Essentially, Economic Development is a process to improve the well being of the community by creating a balanced, healthy economy. Henderson's economic development strategy, as well as that of many other organizations across America, centers around three main focus areas: business recruitment, local business expansion and retention, and local business start-ups.
