Economic Development Leader As the core economic, cultural, and governmental hub, the DMC offers opportunities to package sponsorships, cross-promotional campaigns, and data-driven placemaking initiatives to attract businesses and drive foot traffic downtown.

Digital & Analytics With a tech stack including Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, New Relic, and modern web tools, there is potential for advanced digital marketing services, insights dashboards, and site optimization collaborations to measure impact of activations.

Publications & Research Recent release of the State of Downtown Memphis report suggests opportunities to provide market research, data visualization, and annual research partnerships or sponsored reports to support ongoing urban development messaging.

Financial Scale & Opportunity Revenue range and CBID-backed funding imply potential for scalable partnerships with service providers, event coordinators, and incentive programs targeting downtown growth, with opportunities to offer strategic planning, event services, and technology solutions.
