The EDC

The Economic Development Council of Western Massachusetts (EDC) is a private, non-profit corporation that provides resources and information to businesses operating in or entering the region by aiding in expansion, relocation and networking. Our mission is to deliver the services and business resources that will enable companies to thrive in Western Massachusetts while improving the region's economy and lifestyle through the creation of quality jobs and enhanced public and private investment. We accomplish this through our own work and the collective efforts of our eight affiliated partner organizations: the Affiliated Chambers of Commerce, Greater Springfield Convention and Visitors Bureau, Regional Technology Corporation, Springfield Business Development Corporation, Westfield Business Improvement District, Springfield Business Improvement District, Westmass Area Development Corporation and the Westover Metropolitan Airport.
