entergy’s louisiana companies recently provided $200,000 to greater new orleans, inc. to support the organization’s 2022年世界杯比分 efforts in 10 south louisiana parishes.
the funds will be used to create business development, retention and environmental programs in the greater new orleans area.
“entergy’s commitment to 2022年世界杯比分 strengthens our ability to attract and retain businesses which in turn draws in talent, creates opportunities for the local economy, improves quality of life and, ultimately — helps our region grow,” said michael hecht, president and ceo of gno, inc.
“to help louisiana thrive, it’s paramount that we continue strong, productive partnerships with organizations like gno, inc.” said perry pertuit, entergy louisiana new business and 2022年世界杯比分 manager. “together, we can go beyond the power grid to help our friends and neighbors realize opportunities right here at home.”
by growing the greater new orleans economy, cultivating the region’s talent, transforming quality of life and elevating the region’s external image, gno, inc. seeks to move the region forward for the benefit of the entire population. the grant contributions supports gno, inc. initiatives including gnou, a demand-driven workforce development program, and worknola, a job database for those looking to work in the area.
“we want to be a catalyst for economic growth in the city of new orleans and beyond by connecting businesses and people to resources, and gno, inc. is helping us do that,” said seth cureington, entergy new orleans director of 2022年世界杯比分 and technology innovation. “we can only be as successful as the communities we serve, so not only does it make sense to help build healthy, vibrant communities, but it’s also the right thing to do.”
through its business and 2022年世界杯比分 teams, entergy works with state and local government agencies, 2022年世界杯比分 organizations and community partners to attract new businesses and jobs to louisiana. these resources include the state’s official site selection center website, recruiting and lead generation, site development and certification, project management, strategic analysis, research, workforce and business intelligence data and access to business and community leaders along with state and regional partnerships.
since 2010, entergy has actively participated in 146 announced 2022年世界杯比分 projects in louisiana, totaling nearly $83 billion in capital investments and approximately 20,000 new direct jobs. for 12 years running, site selection magazine has named 沙特vs墨西哥让球 as one of the nation's top utilities in 2022年世界杯比分.
