As business climates fluctuate, uncertainty is inevitable.
JobsOhio, Ohio’s private, nonprofit economic development corporation, closely monitors fluctuations in the global economy and its impact on the state’s business climate. We remain a steady partner for domestic and international companies looking to expand their operations across diverse industries, including advanced manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, healthcare, and more. We understand that successful partnerships are built on trust, and, for over a decade, we’ve helped companies successfully navigate business growth in Ohio with customized support each step of the way.
Simply put – JobsOhio is committed to helping companies and their people thrive. In addition to offering customized financial incentives, we help mitigate risks and pivot as needed when it comes to site selection, workforce development, and more.

- Need to meet a tight production timeline? We worked with biotechnology leader Amgen to bring together the in-state partners necessary to build a workforce development program in an expedited 12-month period.
- Having trouble with site selection? We worked with Westrafo, a leader in the electromechanical industry, to quickly pivot on a site for its new North American headquarters and helped automated storage systems manufacturer Modula connect with local officials to rezone the site neighboring its current facility for industrial use.
