DISCUSSION TOPIC: Building Growth Together: Partnering with Community Economic Development Organizations
During the October Membership Meeting, Charles J. Bennett, Director of Economic Development and Tourism at the City of Hopewell, discussed how economic development organizations are not merely regulatory contacts or sources of incentives, but how they can help investors identify opportunities, navigate local processes, assemble partnerships, reduce development risk, and create projects that produce both financial returns and lasting community value. Please join us to carry forward the conversation at Think Tank.
