New Albany has emerged as one of the most prolific economic development engines in the state of Ohio for job creation and retention. In less than 20 years, the city has transformed thousands of acres of farmland into the New Albany International Business Park. The only master-planned business park in the state now encompasses 11 million square feet of space and $3 billion in private investment. New Albany constantly challenges itself to deliver the assets that businesses need to succeed through master planning that taps its inherent entrepreneurial spirit, business collegiality and public-private partnerships.
