e-Synchronist

Member CountiesThe e-Synchronist Business Information System is a web-based software tool to provide business retention and expansion (BR&E) teams with a better way to organize, analyze and report company information, giving community decision-makers invaluable insight into the dynamics of the local economy and enabling them to assist businesses to expand and create jobs.
