Site Development
Working closely with regional economic development organizations, community leaders, and local, regional, and federal partners, InvestReady helps communities identify and prepare properties for rapid development. Certain projects may be eligible to receive grants through TVA’s InvestPrep, a program that helps prepare sites and buildings, making them more marketable for development.
