Highlights of the 2023 ECG Economic Development Summit
“In the 21st-century model of economic development, it’s no longer the economic development professionals’ job to do economic development. It’s all our jobs. It’s city managers, elected officials, department heads, cities, and counties all have to focus on developing our communities.”
