City of Pasadena
Pasadena provides R&D businesses and facilities with incentives that include priority plan check reviews and fee reductions or waivers. Pasadena also boasts a number of programs designed to help businesses such as its business seminar series, small business loan program, and small business incubators. Area incubators include the Pasadena Enterprise Center, Pasadena Bioscience Collaborative, Business Technology Center, and the Pasadena Development Corporation. Pasadena offers ombudsman services which provide individual attention in assisting the business owner from the beginning of the entitlement process to the end of construction. They have also designated certain parts of the city as an Enterprise Zone, and the Mayor and City Manager host special meetings with top level executives of businesses to identify new development needs.
