Those of us who are fortunate enough to call Northwest Florida home certainly have much to be proud of.

The sixteen counties spanning from Escambia County in the west to Jefferson County in the east are blessed with numerous high-quality businesses, beautiful natural surroundings, and a wealth of recreational and cultural diversions.

Indeed, at first glance, what more could we possibly want? But the truth is that if we fail to begin planning for the future now, then our children and grandchildren may find a limited number of opportunities available in the Northwest Florida of tomorrow.

However, with successful economic development programs, forward-thinking infrastructure planning, and regionally-minded cooperation, we can work to ensure that the future of Northwest Florida is even brighter than the present.

The purpose of this web site is to provide Northwest Florida citizens, leaders, and friends with insight into a number of key elements that drive the economic development process. As you will soon see, special emphasis has been placed on regionally-specific issues.

We hope you find your visit with us to be both informative and insightful.  next »
