Regional Competitiveness Plan Aims to Help Region Better Compete for Jobs & Talent

Regions that work together toward common goals are better positioned to successfully navigate the challenges of the future. For the last couple of years, an Economic Leadership Steering Committee comprised of 45-plus public and private sector representatives from our nine-county economic development region developed a Competitiveness Plan for Central Kentucky. The final report includes several recommendations and action items focused on economic development, talent recruitment and retention, and regional leadership development.  Read more about the plan ON-LINE HERE.  To find out how you can get engaged in this effort, contact Andi Johnson.
