“Working together, business and government leaders promote Quincy’s economic vitality through Quincy 2000 Collaborative, a true public/private partnership, making the city an exceptional place to live, work, invest and visit.” - Mayor Tom Koch

Quincy 2000 Collaborative helps businesses thrive. It’s a private, non-profit economic development corporation that unites Quincy's public and private sectors in a common economic development mission. Working together, business and government leaders promote Quincy’s economic vitality and make the city an exceptional place to live, work, invest and visit.

Since 1992, Quincy 2000 has played a vital role in attracting new business to the city, helping existing businesses grow, improving the business landscape with sign and façade improvements and providing technical and financial support for new and emerging businesses. A true public/private partnership, the organization today is proud to have membership from a wide cross section of industries, labor and business groups as well as city officials.

Quincy 2000's operating budget is driven by membership dues from business, labor unions and individuals. In turn, the City of Quincy provides funding for specific programs through the federal Community Development Block Grant Program.

Policy is set by a Board of Directors representing businesses large and small, labor unions and city government, while a full-time staff in conjunction with volunteer committees implements the program. In addition to the business assistance and financing programs, newly established Business Partnerships focus on enhancing individual business districts, while the Asian Business Partnership fosters the growth and success of the Asian business community.

Whether it is helping to write a business plan, obtain financing, open a business in Quincy, encouraging a business to relocate to Quincy, providing loans to help existing businesses grow, developing plans for local business districts or supporting the City’s economic initiatives, Quincy 2000 makes it happen.
