Mission EDC

About Mission EDC

Mission EDC is tasked with creating jobs, attracting capital investment, improving the quality of life and strengthening the workforce in Mission, Texas. In 2011, the organization went through a major overhaul that allowed it to re-invent itself and create a new strategic plan. Through this process, the Mission EDC board agreed to focus on five areas: · Entrepreneurship and STEAM Education · Infrastructure and Transportation · Quality of Life · Business Expansion and Retention · Recruitment It was a board consensus that education is the foundation to economic development and without it makes the other areas of focus difficult to achieve. Thus, the board agreed to focus on Entrepreneurship and STEAM Education as its main priority. Consequently, three initiatives were created to address this number one priority: Ruby Red Ventures, Code the Town, and Enginuity. The professional staff of Mission Economic Development Corporation are available to assist local or relocating businesses. An important source of information and program activity, Mission Economic Development Corporation staff understand the competitive nature of local, national and international business.
