Incorporating FDI in Economic Development: How the U.S. Economic Development Administration Helps

By Peter Torpey, Intern, SelectUSA

(January 5, 2018) As chair of the Federal Interagency Investment Working Group (IIWG), SelectUSA works across the federal government to coordinate and streamline policies and programs that affect foreign direct investment (FDI) in the United States. A significant part of that mission includes making resources readily available to the public, which is why SelectUSA and the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA) came together for the latest edition of the SelectUSA USG Webinars last month.
