Secretary of State Nellie Gorbea:
We Need to Replicate Quonset's Growth
Across Rhode Island
Secretary of State Nellie M. Gorbea has authored a piece in the
New England Real Estate Journal highlighting the growth at Quonset Business Park and how it can be achieved in other parts of the state. The Secretary touts the Quonset Development Corporation's efforts to provide a predictable and transparent climate for businesses to succeed and grow within the Park.
"Quonset Business Park is a leading driver of Rhode Island's economy," Gorbea wrote in her piece. "Through their uniform development guidelines, site-readiness program, and universal leasing incentives, they are showing how the public and private sector can work together to spur economic development."
The Secretary also focused on how her office is helping to move Rhode Island forward.
"Whether you are a new entrepreneur or an established business, the Rhode Island Department of State can help you by providing information that is efficient, strategic and relevant to your needs. This begins with our Business Services Division, where all Rhode Island businesses are registered," she said.
"We need more job growth in this state and the only way to see that happen is to ensure that companies can develop, grow, and stay here through a predictable and transparent environment," she added. "They've done it at Quonset - and I'm committed to continuing to do that in my office, as well."
