  • research and identify economic development and growth areas, opportunities and projects with an emphasis on agri-food business, manufacturing and processing
  • assist communities in evaluating and implementing projects
  • identify government assistance programs
  • identify sources of capital
  • develop partnerships and strategic alliances to foster and integrated approach to the development of the region
  • increase the economic development activity and resources available in the region
