COACT Works With Leaders of Economic Development Organizations Across the Country

Whether your goal is to create more exposure for existing programs and incentives to a current business, for retention purposes, or to attract new businesses to the region, or a mixture of both – we can help.

Most economic development organizations are strapped with few resources to do a big job. COACT may be the answer.  Almost immediately, COACT, delivers the expertise and talent that are critical to helping deliver results in a meaningful and sustainable way.

To put it plainly, we convert hope into reality.
