As a commercial contractor, I value new development. Lindsey and Kate's efforts are truly inspiring. They are networking experts that know who and where to turn to get answers. They excel at creating, expanding and retaining business here.

Lindsey & Kate have taught us - it's not just about data, info, or new big business. It's about a package of support for business growth. Anyone wanting to do business here will find the WCED indispensable in achieving their goals.
Edward McDonough
Founding Shareholder at MEPB

My business partner and I opened a new business downtown. The process and all the paperwork can be overwhelming and it isn't always assimilating into a new business community. Lindsey & her team make it simple. Highly recommend.
