Good Economic Development Includes Community Development

Our focus at the Department of Economic Development is business, but our vision goes beyond helping companies locate and expand here. We are engaged in a variety of community development initiatives with a goal of sustaining and enhancing Loudoun's overall excellence for years to come. A sampling of recent projects includes:

 

• Medical Automation Conference – a international-level conference bringing healthcare providers and administrators together to learn about new health improvements and cost saving technologies.
• Wayfinding – a Board of Supervisors-initiated project to study and design a sign system which will welcome, orient and guide those traveling in and around the county.
• Signatures of Loudoun Design Awards – The Department's Design Cabinet recognizes quality design elements throughout countywide with their annual award program. 
• Agricultural and Forestal District Program – an effort by DED to leverage the state-mandated program in a way to increase economic development outreach to the agricultural community.
