The Northern Nevada Development Authority (NNDA) is developing a regional economic development strategy for the entire NNDA region. This initiative, termed the NorthernNVision strategy initiative, will help determine and market the unique assets of seven northern Nevada counties: Carson City, Churchill, Douglas, Lyon, Mineral, Pershing and Storey. AngelouEconomics (AE), a nationally recognized economic development consulting firm out of Austin, Texas, has been selected to lead the region in this important endeavor.


	It is the mission of AE, as the consulting team hired to provide this NorthernNVision strategy, to create a plan that will provide initiatives and guidance for NNDA. For the next eight months, AE will be working closely with the Steering Committee of the NNDA to develop a plan that will result in the creation of visions, goals, strategies, and project priorities.

AE will provide the NNDA with a thorough economic assessment of the region, an identification of target industries that economic development efforts should be focused upon, improvements that may be required to meet the needs of these industries, and recommendations for marketing to and attracting investment.

We want this project to be a public process and we encourage all community citizens to get involved. This website will be your main tool to stay involved and follow our progress.
