Bouquet: The Dickinson Area Economic Development Alliance is proud to announce its participation in the 2025 Economic Development Week that starts Monday and runs through Friday, a global initiative led by the International Economic Development Council to celebrate the contributions of positive economic development in our area over the past year.

“Economic Development Week is a time to reflect on our collective achievements and to plan for a future of sustainable growth,” said Mindy Meyers, executive director of the Dickinson Area Economic Development Alliance. “This year, we will be reintroducing The Alliance and our task force groups as well as taking a look back and ahead at economic activities in our region on our social media pages to raise awareness of the investments being made in our community.”

The IEDC created Economic Development Week in 2016 to recognize the work that economic development organizations and professionals do in their communities.

IEDC celebrates Economic Development Week every year, highlighting the programs, best practices and exceptional individuals that positively impact life in their communities. In just a few years, the event has become one of the most widely recognized awareness weeks of its kind, validating the often-unheralded work of the economic development profession.

The Dickinson Area Economic Development Alliance joins business, industry, education, government, and community organizations to grow the region’s economy by retaining, recruiting, and growing talent for our growing employer base as well as promoting business retention and expansion, government relations and advocacy, and infrastructure and housing development. The Alliance tells the unique story of a robust community in which to live and work.

The Alliance is a 501(c)(6), with 80% of its funding coming from private sector employers. For more information about Dickinson Area Economic Development Alliance, go online to www.daeda.org.
