We stay apprised of global business and economic trends, and collaborate broadly to plan and execute a sustainable, regional economic development strategy.

Areas of Focus

The Charleston Regional Development Alliance leverages public-private resources for the attraction and growth of globally competitive companies. A growing number of corporations and individuals invest both time and money in our efforts, and we rely on their passion, leadership and dedication every single day. We also work closely with our public-sector investors, Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester counties, in their efforts to provide improved economic opportunities for their citizens.

Our focus areas include:
  • Promoting the region as a unified market with numerous and diverse business and lifestyle assets.
  • Building awareness of our region as a preferred location for business and careers.
  • Branding the region as a place that uniquely inspires people to create, innovate and follow their passions.
  • Providing accurate and timely information that positions our region competitively against other metro areas for specific corporate expansion and location projects.
  • Working directly with companies to assist them with locating or expanding a business here, matching their business requirements to a location somewhere within our three-county market.
