Economic Outlook for the Next Decade
As we enter a new year and the new decade, we make resolutions for ourselves - we’ll lose weight, we’ll be on time, we’ll call our family more - but what about our resolutions for this great region in which we live? Northeast Ohioans have tremendous opportunity to positively shape our region’s future growth. Our research institutions are commercializing new technologies, as our rich biomedical, polymer and alternative energy assets are spurring entrepreneurial activity and new business attraction. Our 29 colleges and universities are educating 190,000 of our neighbors while our worldclass cultural amenities are attracting more tourists than in years past. With Cleveland’s new convention center, Medical Mart and casino, Akron’s BioInnovation Institute, Stark County’s fuel cell expertise, and so much more activity around the region, what can the next decade hold for Northeast Ohio?
Our region has tremendous opportunity to be the center of new industries and the next generation… if we actively participate and do our individual part to turn ”opportunity” into “reality”.  Team NEO’s CEO, Tom Waltermire and President of the Fund for our Economic Future , Brad Whitehead, will speak at the City Club of Cleveland this Friday, January 8 from noon - 1:30 pm about Northeast Ohio’s Economic Outlook for the Next Decade. Make it your resolution to attend this session, learn about regional initiatives and decide how you will contribute to making the next decade a prosperous one for the Cleveland Plus region.
