Sagess has formed a partnership with Ecodev, LLC (www.ecodevllc.com) that is focused on its mission to assist client companies by locating optimum funding opportunities for the client's expansion, consolidation or relocation growth initiatives.

Our recommendations are "holistic" in their final form. We take great pride in delivering "win-win" solutions for both community and client while assisting our clients in the optimization of their financial, labor and productivity investments within a given location. Over the past years we have arranged 26 successful transactions in which significant funds were raised for companies.

Our non-traditional funding solutions assist our clients in raising funds to enhance company performance and fuel growth. In all cases, the funding opportunities (grants and incentives) secured for our clients do NOT dilute equity and do NOT add debt onto their balance sheet.

When you select Ecodev you will gain:

• A business partner with a successful track record throughout North America, in optimizing Economic Grants and Financial Incentives for our clients;
• A business partner in which all senior executives have held corporate officer positions (both privately-held and public companies) and bring significant operations knowledge and experience to any established client relationship. A business partner with personal relationships at the federal, state and local levels of government entities across North America;
• A business partner that understands employment laws and requirements; and
• A business partner that is 100% focused on achieving your objectives - our expertise is creating an optimal operating model by negotiating maximum economic grants and financial incentives for your company.

Fact: Of the total money we've secured for our clients for the 26 engagements, less than 15% was generated through traditional government and business sources and 85% came from NON-PUBLIC, discretionary sources. In other words, our many years of expertise drives results in which our clients take advantage of ALL available funding sources.

With all research completed, we summarize and then offer a "Bundled Recommendation" that matches the client's requirements.

Also, our considerable experience means that the final agreements are written with the following end objective -- the client is protected, has maximum flexibility and is not unreasonably beholden to the community.

ALL industries qualify for these Business Growth Funding opportunities, including but not limited to Manufacturing, Software Development, Technology, R & D, Back Office/Customer Support, Distribution, and Life Sciences.
