JAXUSA Partnership hosted a delegation of UK business leaders last week for a series of focused roundtables on the financial services industry and infrastructure here in the Jacksonville region. The visit comes on the heels of another successful economic development mission to London in October and a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that was signed last year to increase business relationships, trade, bilateral investment and academic research between Florida and the United Kingdom. As we look to the future, JAXUSA will continue to build on its relationship with the UK and strengthen Jacksonville’s global position as a leading destination for commerce and quality of life. #JAXUSAPartnership #EconomicDevelopment #UK City of Jacksonville Department for Business and Trade

About us
JAXUSA Partnership, a private, nonprofit division of the JAX Chamber, is Jacksonville’s regional economic development initiative. Using strategic research and targeted marketing, JAXUSA focuses on recruiting new companies, increasing private capital investment and expanding our existing business community. Economic development partners in Baker, Clay, Duval, Flagler, Nassau, Putnam and St. Johns Counties of Northeast Florida comprise the strong partnership that drives the business development process. JAXUSA works closely with the independent authorities — JAXPORT, Jacksonville Aviation Authority (JAA), JEA and Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA) — to build infrastructure to ensure we have a sustainable business climate to offer companies. Talent is an integral part of the process, and our partnerships with CareerSource Northeast Florida and local school districts, colleges and universities help develop and attract a steady stream of skilled workers. The private-sector investors that fund our efforts make it possible to execute the objectives and strategies outlined for the region.
