Ron Maloney
Executive Director, Economic Development
I help companies evaluate Northwest Arkansas, from major industrial site development underway at XNA to incentives and supplier connections across the region. As the Council's executive director of economic development, I serve as a single point of contact, bringing in the right state, local and workforce partners to align mission needs with regional assets and accelerate site decisions. If you're evaluating U.S. locations, let's talk at Farnborough.

Founded in 1990 by Sam
Walton, J.B. Hunt and Don Tyson, the Northwest Arkansas Council serves as a
regional convener for economic and community initiatives. The Council brings
together companies, local government and partners to expand access to high-quality
jobs, strengthen the workforce and enhance regional competitiveness in advanced
manufacturing, aerospace, defense, life sciences, logistics and related
industries. As the region's primary point of contact for economic development, the Council connects companies to opportunity.
