February 1, 2024
Georgia Department of Economic Development
Fiscal Year 2023 was a blockbuster for Georgia. Celebrating 50 years of international offices in Japan and Europe, along with the establishment of the Georgia Film Office, Georgia harnessed our longstanding relationships and other foundational assets to achieve a record year.
- Trade exports outperformed the 2021 record by $5 billion.
- 802 film, television, commercial, and music video projects spent more than $8.5 billion directly in the state over the last two years.
- 131% increase in annual investment totals over the last three years.
- 82% of new jobs created were in communities outside metro Atlanta in FY23.
How does Georgia do it? Our business-friendly environment, bolstered by our unique partnership approach and global presence are foundational to our success.
Dive Deeper: Take a look at our Year in Review and let us know how we can work together to achieve even more. It’s our many partners who help Georgia continue to deliver innovative global solutions, while keeping our state the best place to live, work, play, and visit.
Sincerely,
Team GDEcD
