The Estancia Valley Economic Development Association
Mission
EVEDA's goal is to develop the quality of life in the valley while reinforcing the unique characteristics of our communities. We hope to accomplish this by building quality jobs that will generate disposable income and tax revenues. It is the direction of growth and economic development, through infrastructure, education, and jobs that will help present and future generations prosper in our valley.
Working in close partnership with local, state, and regional organizations as well as local businesses, realtors, developers, large landowners, and financial institutions to facilitate economic development, EVEDA actively recruits new businesses to and assists in the retention of new businesses in the Estancia Valley. Since 2001, EVEDA has been instrumental in bringing hundreds of new jobs to the valley, which will result in millions of dollars of economic impact, and we have worked successfully to ensure that broadband access is available to businesses seeking to establish operations here in one of Central New Mexico's most promising locales.
EVEDA also provides support to new and expanding businesses by introducing them to State and other incentive programs such as tax initiatives, training programs, and much more.
