About Us

Hamden has a strong Economic and Community Development Department that values the importance of workforce development. In addition, a comprehensive business Incentive Program and an active Chamber of Commerce both combine to make Hamden a great place to do business. If you would like to learn about our business incentives, our great schools and our quality of life, click on the image below to learn about Hamden and all of its community programs in education and arts.

The Economic Development Commission has developed a long-range Economic Development Plan which promotes programs such as tax incentives, loan programs, a technical assistance program for small businesses, and developing initiatives such as a marketing program for the town and improvements in the Hamden Business Park.
