Our Investors

The San Gabriel Valley Economic Partnership is a private, not-for-profit corporation funded totally by membership dues investments and special projects purchased by our "member customers". Our Board of Directors is comprised of key representatives from cities, colleges and universities, and businesses who have an investment in the economic stability of the region as a whole. While we welcome the participation and support of all businesses and residents, our focus is on the Valley as a regional economic entity. As such, we are uniquely positioned as a natural "Partner" with local chambers of commerce, many of whom have joined the Partnership as participating members.
