Economic Incentives & Tax Credits

High impact incentives for small businesses in Texas

Texas has led the nation in population growth over the last 17 years and continues to be a top state for job creation. As the 9th largest economy among the nations of the world, Texas offers a combination of unique competitive business advantages that no other state can claim: a business-friendly climate—with no corporate or personal income tax—along with a highly skilled and diverse workforce, easy access to global markets, robust infrastructure and a reasonable regulatory environment. From the nation’s largest “deal-closing” fund (Texas Enterprise Fund) to programs administered by the Texas Workforce Commission, a diverse range of incentives and financing options help companies locate and expand in the Lone Star State. The Skills Development Fund is an innovative program created to assist Texas public community and technical colleges to finance customized job training for their local businesses.
