New Discover Sandoval Portal Highlights Local Business Resources and Events

Discover Sandoval serves as Sandoval County's central hub for business development and community happenings, bringing together practical tools for site selection, funding and incentives, workforce supports, and a calendar of local events. The portal lists seasonal fairs and a December Winterfest and Winter Market, and highlights tourism anchors such as Campus Park, UNM Sandoval Regional Medical Center, Tamaya Resort and Spa, regional trails and arts venues. Residents and local businesses can use the site to find contacts for economic programs and to check dates and details on the Events and News pages.

For local businesses, the portal reduces friction in accessing development services and incentive information. Resources for site selection and funding are presented alongside business development guidance, which can shorten the lead time for expansions or relocations and improve the county's appeal to site selectors and entrepreneurs. Workforce supports listed on the site aim to link jobseekers and employers, helping fill vacancies in health care, hospitality, retail, and tourism related to major local assets such as the medical center and the resort.

Community events featured on the calendar carry direct economic implications. Holiday markets and seasonal festivals generate foot traffic for downtown merchants, create supplemental income opportunities for artisans and food vendors, and extend tourism seasons around attractions and trail networks. The December Winterfest and Winter Market listing signals immediate opportunities for participation and spending that benefit small business revenue during a critical retail month.

From a policy perspective, consolidated digital access to incentives and program contacts improves transparency and can increase uptake of public supports aimed at job creation and capital investment. For county leaders, maintaining current event listings and program contacts will be important to maximize program effectiveness and to monitor economic impact.

Residents and business owners should visit discoversandoval.com and use the Events and News pages to confirm dates and details for seasonal happenings, funding opportunities, and workforce programs. The portal functions as a working toolkit for local economic activity, tourism promotion, and community engagement in Sandoval County.
