The Lake Mary area continues to draw national attention as a premier area for business relocation and investment in Central Florida. The City of Lake Mary, in a teamwork effort with Seminole County Government, Economic Development Commission and Seminole Community College has developed a "target industry district" to support and promote the economic development of the area.

This concept showcases:
- Quality of life
- The best of education and schools
- Open campus-type corporations
- Fiber optic availability
- The friendly atmosphere

In Lake Mary, the I-4 corridor has been targeted for over 8 million square feet of office, commercial and light manufacturing uses in several planned commercial developments. The City is already home to such businesses as:

- AT & T- Cingular Wireless
