PEDCO is a non-profit organization supported generously through our members. Our members believe in the investment they are making in economic development in our community. The majority of our operations are funded through membership dollars. Our members are a vital piece to the creation of jobs for Pueblo.

In addition to being a piece of economic development, our members have inside information of PEDCO news through member communications and quarterly membership meetings.  Members have access to news and the trends happening in economic development from around the region and country.
