Greenway Medical Technologies Completed $12 Million Expansion In Carrollton, Georgia
06/06/2013
Gov. Nathan Deal said the investment was aided by the state’s Quality Jobs Tax Credit, Retraining Tax Credit and Quick Start workforce training program. “Georgia is ideally positioned to benefit from the rapid growth of the healthcare information technology field, and as a member of the HCI 100, Greenway is one of the industry’s biggest players,” said Deal. “This homegrown company has grown rapidly since it was founded in 1998 and has helped Georgia become one of the top three states in the nation for the greatest concentration of Health IT businesses.”
“Georgia’s reputation as a proactive and nurturing environment for information technology is well known, occurring within the corridors of government, the university settings and among the many leading companies in the state,” said Tee Green, Greenway president and chief executive officer.
“Our vision is to advance a smarter and sustainable healthcare system through data liquidity and population health services benefiting caregivers and patient consumers, and we are grateful for the leaderships and assistance provided on the local, regional and state levels,” Green added.
The Georgia Department of Economic Development partnered with Carroll Tomorrow, Carroll County’s lead economic development organization, the City of Carrollton, the Carrollton Payroll Development Authority, the Carroll County Commission, utility partners and others to secure this competitive expansion opportunity for the state. GDEcD project manager E. Jane Caraway managed this project on behalf of the state.
“Through Carroll Tomorrow and its committed stakeholders, Carroll County is effectively competing in the global economy with a world-class business environment,” said Carroll Tomorrow board chair Loy Howard. “Along with supporting existing industry growth of companies like Greenway Medical, we are strategically recruiting industry clusters including technology, R&D, aerospace and advanced manufacturing. These firms can take advantage of the state-of-the-art 116 acre Buffalo Creek technology park, a trained workforce, optimal utility infrastructure and aggressive economic development incentives.”
