Las Vegas, Nevada – The Nevada Governor’s Office of Economic Development (GOED) has approved tax incentives for three companies, which are anticipated to generate billions in investment and create hundreds of jobs in Southern Nevada. The decisions align with ongoing efforts to diversify the state’s economy and promote job growth as expressed by state officials.
The first company, TensorWave, a cloud computing firm that focuses on artificial intelligence, is set to establish its global headquarters in Clark County. The firm plans to occupy a 20,000-square-foot facility in Town Square, with operations commencing in the fall of 2025. TensorWave aims to create 150 jobs with an impressive average wage of $58 per hour. In recognition of its commitment, the company was granted $210,000 in tax abatements and intends to invest $1 million in capital equipment over the next decade. Furthermore, TensorWave expects to contribute approximately $26 million in new taxes over that span. Notably, the company has raised $43 million in seed funding, marking it as the largest startup funding in Nevada’s history.
The second firm, NeuroGum Inc., a producer of gum and mint products, will open a 50,000-square-foot distribution and fulfillment center located at 4675 S Valley View Blvd. The facility is projected to begin operations in August 2025. NeuroGum, which received $63,000 in tax abatements, anticipates creating 62 jobs at an average wage of $40 per hour within five years. The company is also expected to invest $300,000 in capital equipment and generate $5 million in new tax revenues over the next ten years.
The third company, Dealer Tire LLC, is planning to launch a 116,000-square-foot distribution and fulfillment center in Clark County. This center will enhance the company’s tire delivery operations and is expected to begin operations within five years, creating 30 jobs with an average wage of $35.50 per hour. Dealer Tire is set to receive $197,000 in tax abatements and plans to invest $2 million in capital equipment while projecting the generation of $8.6 million in new tax revenue over the next decade.
In total, the three firms are expected to create hundreds of high-paying jobs and collectively invest around $2.4 billion in Southern Nevada. These initiatives are projected to yield $526 million in new state tax revenues within the next ten years, contributing significantly to the region’s economy.
The GOED’s decisions are a part of Nevada’s broader strategy to reduce reliance on tourism and gaming by fostering a diverse economic landscape that encourages innovation and job creation. By attracting companies like TensorWave, NeuroGum, and Dealer Tire, the state aims to position Southern Nevada as a competitive player in the technology and manufacturing sectors.
As Nevada moves forward with these economic development initiatives, the impact on job creation and tax revenue generation is expected to bolster the state’s economy, providing more opportunities for its residents.
