The Maryland Department of Commerce offers many programs and services to assist businesses to create and retain jobs and to grow in Maryland. In Fiscal Year 2018, Commerce awarded projects that assisted 678 businesses, resulting in nearly 55,000 jobs and annual State tax revenues of $170 million.
Recognizing the importance of measuring these programs, the Maryland General Assembly passed the 2013 Maryland Jobs Development Act, requiring Commerce to report annually by December 31 on certain finance programs and tax incentive programs administered by the Department during the prior fiscal year. The intent of this report is to include data on the number of jobs created, the number of jobs retained; the estimated amount of State revenue generated; and any additional information by each program and each recipient.
