From the Director
Welcome to the first issue of the Montgomery County Department of Economic Development's e-Biz Update! As director, I think it's critical to celebrate the great work, successes and stories of our dynamic local business community. It's equally important to keep our local businesses informed of all the resources, programs and services that are available. I encourage you to provide us with your thoughts and suggestions as we proceed, and ask you to forward this e-letter to as many of your business colleagues as possible.
Sincerely,
