International companies announce investment in Nevada

CARSON CITY, Nev. – As Nevada positions itself as a global hub for innovation, international companies are seizing opportunities to contribute to the state's economy.

During the 2024 Select USA Investment Summit, five international companies announced business development plans in Nevada. These investments target key strategic sectors, including battery technology, sustainable mining and research services, and other energy-efficient manufacturing. The companies’ visions align with Nevada’s five-year economic development strategy aimed at fostering an electric, innovative, and connected future.

“Nevada continues to lead the nation in economic development, and I’m proud to welcome five new international companies to our state,” said Governor Joe Lombardo. “Our low cost of doing business, favorable regulatory environment, and robust litigation ecosystem make us a top destination for companies seeking expansion in the United States, and we’re excited to continue diversifying our economy with international partners.”

Nevada’s economic development organizations have played an essential role over the last several months in helping these international companies invest and expand their businesses in the Silver State.

Additionally, GOED offers various programs and assistance to both Nevada-based and international businesses aiming to expand trade. From assisting small businesses with their international exporting goals to attracting foreign direct investment, GOED strives to create and promote opportunities.

The Governor’s Office of Economic Development was created during the 2011 session of the Nevada Legislature through a collaborative effort between the Legislature and the Governor’s Office. GOED's mission is to promote a robust, diversified, and prosperous economy in Nevada by stimulating business expansion and retention, encouraging entrepreneurial enterprise, attracting new businesses, and facilitating community development.
