EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR The Economic Development Association of New Jersey (EDANJ) was formed in 1953 to promote the State’s economy and to provide professionals in the field with the opportunity to exchange best practices and technical informa- tion. During the more than five decades that the Association has been in existence, that mis- sion has stood the test of time while the level of sophistication and complexity in the fields of finance, governing, economic development, real estate, trade and environmental regulation have risen dramatically. All of these fields are represented in EDANJ’s membership and the interdisciplinary focus of all EDANJ events reflects the reality of economic development today in the Garden State. During the first half of 2015, EDANJ partnered in the Northeast Sustainable Communities Workshop to share New Jersey’s success stories and learn from developers and other states and municipalities in the region. Our “Economics and Eggs” seminar on energy economics followed, attended by former Gov- ernor Jim Florio and other luminaries. EDANJ partnered on a site selection program with the Northeastern Economic Developers Association in Newark, NJ in the early summer. Participants at all of these events left with greater insights and often with valuable reference materials to use in their practices. If you are a business in need of financing to grow in New Jersey, a not-for- profit organization seeking capital to expand community services, a municipality looking to attract a major corporation within your boundaries, or a developer requiring funds for a major redevelopment project, the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (EDA) is ready to put its resources to work for you. With our large portfolio of varied programs and services, the EDA can assist you with access to capital, including tax-exempt and taxable bond financing, loans, loan guarantees, and business and tax incentives. In addition, we offer real estate development assistance and state-of-the-art technology facilities like the Technology Centre of New Jersey in North Brunswick and the Wa- terfront Technology Center at Camden. Please join the Association at http://edanj.com/Pay-dues.asp. EDANJ is mindful of your budget and is offering a special membership for the balance 2015 and all of 2016 for $125, the price of an annual individual membership. EDANJ’s membership continues to be one of the best values for an estab- lished professional association. Sue Boyle
