FLX Gateway has been selected as a SelectUSA Invest in Rural America designee for the 2026 SelectUSA Investment Summit, representing Schuyler County, New York.
This designation places Schuyler County among a select group of rural communities across the country that are working to attract new investment and expand economic opportunity.
The SelectUSA Investment Summit, hosted by the U.S. Department of Commerce, is the premier event dedicated to promoting foreign direct investment (FDI) in the United States. The event brings together thousands of participants from around the world—including international companies, investors, and economic development organizations—to explore business opportunities and build connections that lead to job creation.
Each year, the Investment Summit draws more than 5,500 participants from over 100 countries and has contributed to more than $250 billion in new U.S. investment projects supporting over 125,000 jobs nationwide.
For Schuyler County, this opportunity is both practical and strategic.
Participation in the Invest in Rural America program provides FLX Gateway with access to:
Direct connections with vetted international companies
Targeted networking opportunities at the Investment Summit
Tools and data to better position rural communities for investment
National visibility as a location for business growth
FLX Gateway will represent Schuyler County at the Investment Summit in National Harbor, Maryland, May 3–6, 2026, where it will engage directly with companies exploring expansion into the United States.
This effort builds on ongoing work to identify and prepare sites for development, connect with prospective employers, and position the region as a viable option for year-round business growth.
Schuyler County offers a combination of available land, infrastructure-ready locations, and proximity to key markets in the Northeast. The region’s quality of life, workforce potential, and access to transportation corridors continue to make it a competitive option for companies seeking a stable and cost-effective location.
The SelectUSA designation reinforces that rural communities like Schuyler County are part of the national conversation around economic growth and investment.
