The General Assembly finds and declares that the State should partner with the Delaware business community to create and develop new employment opportunities for the citizens of the State. The General Assembly further finds that existing Delaware businesses are ideally situated to encourage new businesses to relocate and bring new jobs to the State. The purpose of this subchapter shall be to create incentives for existing Delaware business firms to develop new Delaware employment opportunities by encouraging out-of-state business firms to relocate to Delaware. It is the General Assembly’s intent to achieve such a result through the implementation of the business finder’s fee tax credit, which is designed to foster the recruitment efforts by Delaware businesses to relocate their suppliers, customers or other associated businesses to Delaware. The business finder’s fee tax credit is also designed to increase tax revenues for the State, and add value to the State’s economy as a result of expanding Delaware’s employment base.
