Welcome

Grounded in a tradition of economic development accomplishment, the WBDC has played a key role in strengthening the Worcester region’s position as an economic leader in Massachusetts. Through targeted investment and strategic partnering, the WBDC brings skills and resources to challenging and complex projects.
The WBDC has been successful in its purpose, creating thousands of jobs, and generating millions of dollars in annual taxes to the region. It has created and maintained good relationships in each community that it has worked, caring as much for what happens in the community as those who live and work there.
There are many reasons for WBDC’s success — vision, competence, an ability to adapt to economic challenges — but perhaps the most important is private-public collaboration."

What a moment; Forsberg is surprise pick for WBDC award
WORCESTER — David P. Forsberg was relaxed before the Worcester Business Development Corp’s annual meeting yesterday, armed with a prepared speech tucked in his suit coat pocket. What was not listed in the program was that it was Mr. Forsberg, past president of the WBDC, who was to receive the Bowditch award. It was a major surprise for Mr. Forsberg, and for most of the estimated 500 people on hand at the DCU Center. One of those few who were in on the surprise was Andrew H. Card Jr., who flew in from Texas to serve as the surprise presenter of the award to Mr. Forsberg. Before the presentation, the lights dimmed for a video tribute to Mr. Forsberg.
