Who are the Economic Development Organizations?
The primary mission of Economic Development Organizations (EDOs) is to promote economic development in the geographic area. The Gulf Coast RCIC is working with EDOs located throughout its 30-county region (web page). The EDOs can be a valuable resource for helping emerging technologies businesses. The Gulf Coast RCIC recommends all applicants contact a local EDO and include an EDO Qualifying Letter when submitting their application. Applicants should work with the EDO who is in their local area and will provide them the assistance they will need to submit their application.
