ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Due to Bristol’ s unique location we are able to access multiple Economic development resources.
The city governments each offer experienced and qualified personnel that can assist with your business relocation needs.
NETWORKS-Sullivan Partnership is a joint economic development partnership of Sullivan County, Tennessee, and its municipal sectors of Bluff City, Bristol and Kingsport.
The Tri-Cities Economic Development Alliance, a regional economic development corporation, teams with local economic development offices and an extensive network of colleges and universities to market Bristol and the region domestically and internationally for the purpose of attracting new business investment and new job creation in the Region.
The Mountain South World Trade Center (WTC) was granted a license in late 2005 and works closely with the regional incubators and businesses to leverage our region’s assets to enhance global trade, with a goal of establishing 20 corporate headquarters within a five-year timeframe. In 2007, the WTC will participate in a series of trade missions for students and business people to key international countries.
