Grants and Contracts Details
Description
EDA's mission is to lead the federal economic development agenda by promoting
innovation and competitiveness, preparing American regions for growth and success in the
worldwide economy. EDA fulfills its mission by helping our partners across the Nation create
wealth and minimize poverty by promoting a favorable business environment to attract private
capital investment and higher-skill, higher-wage jobs through world-class capacity-building,
planning, infrastructure, research grants and strategic initiatives. Institutions of higher education
have many assets, such as faculty, staff, libraries, laboratories, and computer systems, which can
help to address local economic problems and opportunities. With funding from EDA,
institutions of higher education establish and operate University Centers, which provide technical
assistance to public and private sector organizations with the goal of enhancing local economic
development.
