Newark is a vibrant, steadily growing community at the heart of the East Bay, strategically located at the northern tip of Silicon Valley. With easy access to I-880, the Dumbarton Bridge (CA-84), and major airports in San Francisco, Oakland, and San Jose, Newark offers exceptional connectivity.

As a prime business destination, Newark provides competitive advantages such as lower lease rates and ample development sites, making it ideal for both established companies and startups. With new housing developments attracting young professionals and families, Newark is building a diverse workforce that fuels industries such as advanced manufacturing, biotech/life sciences, EVs, food manufacturing, and logistics. As a growing hub for innovation, Newark is shaping the industries of tomorrow and is well-positioned moving forward.

Newark is more than a business hub—it’s a city with a bold vision for the future. Initiatives such as the Art Master Plan, Park Master Plan, a Broadband Master Plan under development, and transformative streetscape projects are enhancing public spaces and creating a vibrant environment for businesses, residents, and visitors alike.

We take pride in our business-friendly environment. Our Economic Development team is here to guide you through the process of establishing or expanding your business.
