Beverly is a “BIOReady Community” |
The Massachusetts Biotechnology Council named Beverly a BIOReady community because of its policies which support the growth of the business in the community through its permitting policies, by-right zoning, public infrastructure projects, pre-permitted biotech sites, and planned development. |
Beverly’s HUBZone |
The program falls under the auspices of the U.S. Small Business Administration. The program encourages economic development in historically underutilized business zones – “HUBZones” – through the establishment of preferences. The benefits of locating in a HUBZone include:
