Existing Industry
The Alamance Chamber recognizes the value of supporting, maintaining, and increasing the health of our existing businesses. These industries provide jobs and capital investment to our local economy, aiding in the increased welfare and health of the broader community. Access Growth provides support and resources to the employers of greater Alamance County.
What is Access Growth?
-
To the Chamber?
Access Growth exists to be our premier business retention and expansion program (BR&E). This tool will be the program of work that the Chamber’s economic development team can use to connect and engage with industries throughout Alamance County. It seeks to serve as an outreach opportunity and information-gathering tool to gauge the business health of Alamance County.
-
To our Existing Industries?
For existing industries in and around Alamance County, Access Growth is a quintessential resource and center for industry-relevant information. This program of the Chamber features a dedicated landing page on AlamanceChamber.com that highlights data of all kinds, targeting areas of concern and need such as workforce, site and utility information, grant and funding resources, market trends, and more.
Access Growth will serve as an opportunity to connect with the Alamance Chamber, its staff, and fellow industry leaders through dedicated Industrial Alliance meetings, curated data and information, and regular updates. Industries will have the opportunity to connect to industry experts and peer businesses within Alamance County and North Carolina through the Chamber’s networks.
-
To our Investors?
We strive to ensure our program of work is in line with the Invest in Alamance 2.0 Priorities. Access Growth will ensure that those Key Program Components are being met. Those include a clear commitment to our Talent & Workforce areas of work, Investor Engagement, and Job Creation & Retention.
Invest in Alamance 2.0 outlines the necessity of growing in place as a community, highlighting that most new investment and job creation happens from existing companies. We hope that our progress within the framework of Access Growth will support our existing industries to have the confidence, assurance, and support system in place that will enable such growth.
