The Town of Oro Valley is thrilled to unveil a brand new Community and Economic Development website. This site, chooseorovalley.com, is set to be a handy resource for site selectors and both current and prospective businesses in the area. The website was introduced during the Oro Valley Economic Outlook and Spring Business Expo at El Conquistador Tucson, a Hilton Resort, thanks to the local Chamber of Commerce.
The website makes business development simpler and faster by offering site selectors direct access to available land for new builds and vacant buildings ready for reuse. It also provides details about the local workforce, zoning, and development costs and incentives. Additionally, the site functions as an event calendar for economic development and highlights the quality of life and industries that make Oro Valley a standout community. For a video guide to the website, check out this walkthrough.
Paul Melcher, the Community and Economic Development Director, shared, “This has been a fantastic year for economic growth and business support in Oro Valley.” He mentioned key milestones like the first Annual Business Summit, the move to OVNextSteps, and the Entrepreneurial Needs Study. The launch of chooseorovalley.com is yet another step forward, offering instant access to important data and development info for site selectors and local businesses.
At the Economic Outlook event, speakers from Leonardo Electronics shared exciting news. Vice President of Business Operations Graeme Creamer and Senior Vice President Prabhu Thiagarajan discussed their new 120,000-square-foot semiconductor laser facility in Oro Valley’s Innovation Park. This development is set to bring 170 new jobs over the next five years.
