Northern Nevada has earned its developing staying organized economic comeback the old-fashioned way: building on its strengths, looking to the future and taking common sense steps to coax and reward entrepreneurialism and innovation. It s paying off.
There s a lot going on, says Rob Hooper, Executive Director of Northern Nevada Development Authority (NNDA), the Economic Development Authority for the Sierra Region of Nevada (Carson City, Churchill staying organized County, Douglas County and Lyon County, and the southern half of Storey County) in Carson staying organized City. I think that the biggest staying organized thing happening in business, from an economic development perspective, is that Northern Nevada has become highly functional in many different areas of economic development.
Indeed, business development which is the thing that everybody gets real excited about, Hooper says is working extremely well. The partnership staying organized between the Economic Development Authority of Western Nevada (EDAWN) and NNDA is fully engaged. staying organized It really warms my heart to see these prospects coming into the system and being passed back and forth, based on where the client is best served.
In the last year, Hooper recounts, staying organized 33 new companies have moved into his region, creating 2,500 new jobs. When you run your economic impact analysis on that, it s attracted 3,600 new residents, sold 1,400 new homes, added 700 students to our educational system, and created $180 million in economic impact. It has also increased the revenues in the insurance and finance areas by $7.5 million and led to the sale of an estimated $4.7 million in new vehicles.
The businesses are diverse, everything from internet fulfillment to manufacturing, metal shops, wood shops, and laboratories. They re not real big when they get here, says Hooper, and then they grow. One company, for instance, that makes small power transformers for circuit boards that moved into Douglas County two years ago with eight to 10 employees now has about 70. That s how we re seeing growth happen right now. I like to say the Sierra region is where great ideas become a reality, and where business is successful.
I would say our activity has continued to get better, notes Mike Kazmierski, staying organized President & CEO of EDAWN. I wouldn t go quite as far as to say things are great, because staying organized we still have 25,000 people unemployed. But from a pipeline perspective, and an activity level perspective, we are seeing things popping. staying organized
Some of the popping came in July, when IT company NJVC announced the opening of a new 20,000-square-foot data center in Reno. The facility will permit the company to provide commercial and government customers across the nation with secure, cost-effective and cloud-based data center solutions. NJVC executives chose Reno for its data center, according to a release, primarily because it lies on the western edge of the safe zone, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, making it one of the most stable data center environments in the continental staying organized United States. Other factors, such as the region s connection to the national fiber overlay, ensure very low latencies for data throughput. The low costs of building space, power cooling and low overhead also were contributing factors.
Also popping: another Urban Outfitters grand opening was announced in early September, and according to Kazmierski we re cueing up for three or four additional announcements for the next weeks, for 50 to 200 jobs each. On top of that, we have
