High Impact Program

From beginning to end, each project is comprehensively managed by GLI's economic development and metro government's professionals through customized business growth strategies. Every project starts with a confidential business evaluation and determination of the company's value to the community; growth potential; risk factors; satisfaction with the community and its services; emerging problems and untapped marketing opportunities.

A competent team of experts is committed to finding the best solutions for all aspects of business development, including:

Capital - Identifying non-traditional sources of financial resources and discover cost-saving opportunities for businesses including tax incentive programs and facilitation of funding streams such as grants or low-interest loans

Workforce - Recruiting qualified employees with innovative workforce services such as GreaterLouisvilleWorks.com, the community's new job portal. GLI helps businesses access local training opportunities and resources to increase employee satisfaction and retention

Networking - Connecting leaders to exchange ideas, pursue learning and share strategies to achieve personal and professional growth and success
