Maureen Halahan, President & CEO of the Orange County Partnership, has led this private, not-for-profit office of economic development since 2002. During her tenure, Ms. Halahan has worked with both local and international site selectors and developers to locate 230 new companies in Orange County that created in excess of 10,000 jobs and generated billions of dollars in capital investment. In addition, in the past 17 years, 250 companies already located within Orange County, expanded their operations which created an additional 7,000 new jobs.
As a result of her innovative and collaborative spirit, Ms. Halahan serves on the Boards of the Governor’s Mid-Hudson Regional Council, the Hudson Valley Economic Development Corporation, the Citizens Advisory Panel at Stewart International Airport and the Town of Warwick’s Local Development Agency. Ms. Halahan has recently been named Co-Chairman of the Board for 17 Forward 86, Inc.
Ms. Halahan’s commitment to economic development is evident in the outcomes, as she and her team continue to focus on increasing the county’s standing as a top corporate location throughout the nation. When not promoting Orange County, the Orange County Partnership team actively supports several community initiatives such as United Way of Dutchess-Orange Region, Hudson Valley Honor Flight, Operation Gratitude and other Veteran initiatives.
