Business Expansion and Retention

In the eagerness to attract new business, economic development agencies often overlook their existing business base. Geo Strategy Partners brings its industrial and business-to-business expertise to help development organizations with expansion and retention programs. We inventory industry assets, analyze the strengths of industry sectors, and benchmark them to global competitors including a gap analysis. Then we work to develop a private-public partnership to grow industry sectors, help existing industries expand domestically and internationally, and develop and nurture industry growth strategies.

Geo Strategy Partners can help you design, develop, and deploy economic development programs. Our services include program management, road shows, in-bound investor missions, b2b matchmaking, trade promotion, and more. We can serve as your representative office in North America.

We have helped several economic development agencies around the world set up programs to develop awareness, outreach, and strategic positioning. We have developed and implemented investor recruiting programs, Fam trips for investors and media, and expansion/retention programs for local businesses. We constantly update our living database of investors by sector and keep in touch with them through regular communications. We look forward to the opportunity to tailor the right economic development program to your needs.
