CARSON CITY, NV-The Nevada State EB-5 Regional Center recently received its certification from US Citizenship and Immigration Services. NVeb5 is located in Carson City, NV and will focus on job creation through capital investment by foreign investors.
Its first three projects are forecasted to bring in over $86-million in investment and will create more than 3,000 jobs in the Sierra Region of Nevada. NVeb5 is a USCIS certified nonprofit EB-5 regional center whose mission is to create jobs for the Sierra Region of Nevada and to reinvest profits into the region in the form of business startup funding, career skill building and business development programs.
NVeb5 was created through a partnership between Northern Nevada Development Authority and Hop & Mae Adams Foundation. They focused on developing a solution for one of the key challenges facing economic recovery and economic diversity—the ability to secure capital funding.
Rob Hooper, executive director of NNDA says that the approval is a big first step in bringing sustainable business opportunities and financial stimulus to the Sierra Region of Nevada. “As a community-minded nonprofit EB-5 regional center, our program is dedicated to identifying opportunities, encouraging participation, creating jobs and securing the financial support needed to ensure the long term economic stability of our community,” Hooper says. Additionally, as a nonprofit, there is no single winner; instead, the entire community will benefit as profits are returned to spawn more business startups, job creation and business development."
