Anchorage serves as the headquarters for the state’s oil industry, the growing tourism, air cargo and healthcare industries. Anchorage has a strong military presence and is home to the state’s largest port. Anchorage municipal leaders foster an open and supportive business environment and are responsive to the needs of business. The new civic and convention center currently under construction is a prime example of how forging public/private partnerships can facilitate economic development and community enhancements.

While Anchorage is a great place for business, it is a wonderful place to live and raise a family. It is a small city with a big sense of community – with excellent schools, an extensive public transportation system, affordable housing and plenty of recreational and cultural opportunity. The Alaska Native Heritage Center celebrates the traditional cultures of the many Native Alaska tribes. At the Alaska Center for the Performing Arts, you can take in Broadway plays, musical and dance events. Anchorage is the gateway to the great outdoors for both summer and winter adventures and activities.

Add up the factors for business and lifestyle assets and Anchorage is a positive choice.
