Priority Pillars
The Partnership focuses on three key, interconnected pillars to drive meaningful change across the region. This work is advanced by a collective commitment from leaders in business, government, academia and the nonprofit sector. We identify shared opportunities and core challenges, offering solutions to critical regional issues.
Skills & Talent
We work to build the most skilled and versatile workforce in the country. We collaborate with the region’s educators and employers to align training programs with industry needs. This focus on strengthening talent pipelines ensures learners have clear pathways to skills training and jobs for economic mobility.
Regional Mobility & Infrastructure
We champion regional connectivity to drive long-term economic competitiveness. As part of our work to build the most connected and accessible region in the country, we support major infrastructure projects and advocate for securing sustainable transit funding, including encouraging more transit-oriented development.
Economic Growth
We champion regional economic strength by focusing on the core drivers of long-term growth and competitiveness. We advance initiatives that support innovation, address the underlying business conditions needed to support a resilient economy, and expand opportunities for businesses of all sizes to grow and scale.
