Building a Robust Economy for Lane County
We all want greater economic prosperity, our community needs more high-wage jobs, and local people need the skills to get those jobs. That line of thinking is what we’re all about.
Collaborative EDO is a 501(c)3 nonprofit economic development organization modeled after one of the most successful regional EcoDev agencies in the state, EDCO out of Bend, Oregon.
Since our founding, we’ve gained powerful traction in the community through partnerships and events. From our rural communities to urban centers, Lane County is ready to engage in a more inclusive model of development that doesn’t leave anyone out.
In order to accomplish this vision, our work focuses on three strategic priorities: WELCOME, INNOVATE, and THRIVE. Read about these initiatives on our website and discover how we can work together to build a more prosperous and sustainable future for Lane County.
