The Delaware County KIZ Program is focused on accomplishing the following general objectives:

Fostering and promoting a business and educational climate that encourages undergraduate technology research and development and subsequent technology entrepreneurship to encourage graduates to start businesses in the area.
Providing assistance to start-up, emerging, and established technology businesses in the Delaware County KIZ to encourage and assist new technology commercialization and to help them achieve and/or increase their competitive viability in their respective marketplaces.
Identifying and attracting non-local technology businesses, entrepreneurs with intellectual property for new technology businesses, and technology that can be licensed from outside the region to establish new or expanded business operations in the Delco KIZ.
