Helping businesses form and grow - connecting jobseekers and businesses - enforcing laws fairly that affect business - promoting the City's long-term economic vitality.
Economic Development & Business Affairs includes the government services intended to increase the City's economic strength, make it easier to do business here, and ensure that business is conducted legally and fairly.
In pursuit of these goals, City agencies work to reduce the complexity of opening and operating businesses here; promote economic opportunities for minority- and women-owned businesses; bring new enterprises and investments to the City; expedite the resolution of consumer complaints; and enforce laws, regulations and standards to ensure that key industries - like taxicabs, private waste collection, and large wholesale markets - provide safe and high-quality services to New Yorkers.
