Public-Private Leveraging With a focus on leveraging public and private investment to accelerate job creation, there is a sales opening to provide advisory, funding matchmaking, and project financing support for businesses seeking capital and incentive-backed expansions.

Economic Hub As the countywide economic development agency for Muskegon County with a small team, GMED could benefit from scalable tools, training, and managed services to amplify outreach, program management, and stakeholder engagement across a broader portfolio.

Industry Collaboration Collaborations like the food processing incubator and accelerator suggest opportunities to offer industry-specific software, incubator services, event platforms, or supply-chain connectivity solutions to SMEs in food processing and related sectors.
