Bethlehem Economic Development Corporation (BEDCO) Executive Director Sean Ziller joins the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast to explain how two new grants from Pennsylvania’s Main Street Matters program could impact local businesses and neighborhoods.

One grant funds strategic planning for the SouthSide Arts District. The other, known as the Business Improvement Grant (BIG),  offers matching microgrants of up to $5,000 for small businesses in certain areas.

Ziller and host George Wacker explore how these initiatives aim to strengthen Bethlehem’s business environment, how the funds will be used, and why strategic planning today matters for the city’s future.
