Osceola County received the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration (EDA) Build Back Better Regional Challenge Governance Grant, designed to rapidly advance semiconductor research, development, and manufacturing at NeoCity. As the community engagement lead, The Chamber Foundation actively brings stakeholders together through interactive workshops and targeted outreach to ensure community voices are central to this initiative. Our efforts connect residents with valuable career training opportunities and provide essential resources through a bilingual Community Resource Guide.
Osceola County is prepared for significant economic transformation, becoming a premier destination for semiconductor innovation. This initiative is set to attract major technology investments, boosting local infrastructure and creating thousands of high-quality, technology-focused jobs directly within NeoCity. Residents will have the chance to build rewarding careers in their own community.
Additionally, NeoCity’s growth will spur widespread economic opportunities across many sectors, creating thousands of supportive jobs in local service industries. Expanded commercial and residential areas will accommodate this growing workforce, enriching our community and offering enhanced amenities and services for all residents.
The Build Back Better initiative supports the development of vibrant, inclusive communities that reflect the needs and aspirations of Osceola County’s residents. Our community-focused approach ensures that economic benefits are sustainable and accessible, improving quality of life and fostering a prosperous future for everyone.
