This free presentation will feature incentives including the
Excelsior Jobs Program, Start-Up NY Program, Employee Training Incentive
Program, and include guidance on how to complete a Consolidated Funding
Application (CFA) to receive economic development funds. The incentives that will be discussed at the
presentation take the form of fully refundable tax credits, tax-free operation
in qualifying zones, and capital grant funding awards.
Southern Tier West will also highlight the estimated $2.2
million in low-interest gap financing options that are available through their
organization and how business owners can qualify.
“Having Empire State Development on-site at the Crossroads
is a great opportunity for Allegany County manufacturing companies, businesses,
and entrepreneurs to learn a great deal about the incentives that exist at the
state level and the practical information they need on how to qualify and apply
for these incentives,” said Dr. Craig Clark, Economic Developer at Allegany
County. “Southern Tier West will also be
present to add an equally important dimension to the conversation – the
availability of low interest loans,” concluded Clark.
Those who are interested in attending this business
incentives and low interest loan funds presentation should contact Angela
McKay, Assistant Director of Economic Development & Planning at Allegany
County, by phone at 585-268-7447 or by email at angela.mckay@alleganyco.com to
