What is BizConnect?
One of the cornerstones of our local business retention and expansion efforts is the region’s One-on-One Business Visitation Program, where we meet with all types of companies in Southern Nevada. This program is designed to help reduce local business challenges and catalyze new opportunities.
Through private, confidential meetings, the LVGEA and its partners are out in the community listening to the needs of businesses, solving problems, cutting red tape, and helping businesses grow their networks.
Example areas of assistance and connectivity:
As of July 1st, the U.S. officially started a new free trade agreement in North America, now called the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. This will create new opportunities for Nevada businesses importing and reexporting. As the designated Grantee for Southern Nevada’s Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ 89), LVGEA continues to promote this program to assist local businesses in reducing tariff & duty costs involved with international commerce.
