The Ely Economic Development Authority is on a mission to position Ely as one of Minnesota’s most desirable cities to open, grow and maintain a business.

The City of Ely in conjunction with our community partners provides unique opportunities for recreation, culture, and work not often seen in a city of its size.

Our outstanding educational opportunities, a full range of medical services, exceptional outdoor experiences, and an unequaled sense of community spirit ensure that Ely offers an excellent quality of life to residents in affordable neighborhoods that complement our natural surroundings.

In addition to our flexible real estate, a first-rate education system, and our forward-thinking incentives, the EEDA continues to create momentum for businesses seeking to startup, expand, or relocate.

The Ely Economic Development Authority supports business, industry, and entrepreneurship, providing long-term, quality employment, and economic vitality.

Whether you’ve got a big idea or need some assistance with a project, we are here to assist. Contact us to find out more about EEDA’s funding opportunities.
