Expand a Sustainable, Resilient Economy

Expand a strong, diverse and innovative economy that offers opportunity for all.  Provide opportunities for businesses and ventures of all types and sizes to create, grow and succeed.

A Wide and Deep Local Economy.  Recognize that Redstone Arsenal will always be a major driver for the metro area, but continue to add industries such as advanced manufacturing, information technology, research and development, biotechnology and recreation that broaden the economic base for the region.

Small, Medium and Large.  Shape an environment that sustains businesses from the largest Fortune 500 companies to the smallest start-ups and local ventures.  Understand that small business is a big force for the economy, and support the entrepreneurship that feeds it.

Innovate, Innovate, Innovate.  Continue to expand Huntsville’s creative footprint, and plan for the places and events that offer opportunities for people and businesses to collaborate and exchange ideas.
