Welcome to Sonoma County BEST – Building Economic Success Together

For the first time in Sonoma County’s history, a bold new approach to community and county economic development is underway. Sonoma County BEST, Building Economic Success Together, is a collaborative partnership between the private and public sectors of Sonoma County dedicated to creating jobs and fostering economic vitality. Business leaders have joined forces with local government to build a supportive environment both for the growth of established businesses and for companies choosing to relocate to Sonoma County. Through our central management of resource information, our integrated approach to business communication and our network of unified contacts, Sonoma County BEST’s regional initiative will be a vital focal point for enabling and ensuring our county’s future prosperity.

As of January 1, 2012, Sonoma County BEST has transitioned from the campaign fund-raising stage to the implementation of the Strategic Five-Year plan, including work underway by the five teams tasked to spearhead business retention and expansion; foster innovative business; attract new businesses providing high-quality jobs; and build a world class workforce based on educational attainment.
