The New Hampshire Business Resource Center and the International Trade Resource Center offer resources to enhance the economic activities of the state through business attraction outreach, in-state business expansion efforts, and facilitation of government and international sales. The Division of Economic Development, under the direction of State Economic Development Director Roy Duddy, oversees this array of activities. Within the larger department of the New Hampshire Department of Resources and Economic Development, Economic Development plays its role alongside Travel and Tourism, Parks and Recreation, and Forest and Lands in protecting and enhancing the many resources our state offers.

The mission of the Business Resource Center (BRC) is twofold:

• to retain and help expand existing New Hampshire businesses.
• to attract new companies to our great state.

Our experienced staff of economic development professionals is committed to doing whatever it takes to fulfill that mission.
The BRC acts as a single point of contact for businesses seeking assistance in areas ranging from licensing and financing to permitting and workforce training.

In addition, we work in conjunction with federal, regional, local and other State agencies, as well as with private sector partners, to deliver a comprehensive array of services to New Hampshire companies at all stages of their growth cycle.

Give us a call and let us know how we can help you meet and exceed all of your business goals!
