Our Mission
Office of Economic Development Homepage
The Mission of the Office of Economic Development is to change lives through technology development, collaboration, and economic development and diversification.
The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting people and communities nationwide, and our thoughts remain with those affected, and with healthcare providers and scientists working coast-to-coast to provide care and find the answers to this unprecedented public health challenge. Out of an abundance of caution — and given the disruption to travel — the 21st Annual HHS Small Business Programs Conference hosted by UNLV is postponed. We are working with the Luxor and HHS/NIH to reschedule the conference. Additional details will follow and will be posted on our website and sent directly to registered attendees and exhibitors. Registration fees and/or exhibit deposits will be applied to the new conference date. The Luxor will be reaching out directly regarding cancellation of room reservations via the contact info you provided. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
