About Us

The Economic Development Department is the catalyst for shaping the City of San Antonio's future economy. With economic, social, and technological change calling for flexibility and adaptation, EDD has equipped itself to be a driving force for a thriving city, aggressively establishing an array of business assistance programs which serve as a vehicle for job creation, retention, and new investment.

EDD has taken great strides to further the growth of the city through diversification of the overall economy by strengthening driver industries through competitive business incentive packages, creating inroads for small business, and collaboration with the public and partner organizations.

A positive economic climate, growing economy, strong workforce, and an excellent living environment are just some of the reasons to do business in San Antonio. The opportunities for economic benefits to suit your business are many, and our goal is to minimize your efforts, expand your opportunities, and provide your business the best resources available.
