The 46 Things to Economic Developers Need to Know This Week

This week we have 46 tools, stories, graphics, charts and videos that I think you'll find informative, useful, inspiring, and perhaps even humorous.  Some are economic development related directly, and some only indirectly. 🤔

If you're wondering what to do with the info in this newsletter, send something to your board members. It will make you look good!

As always, if you find something interesting, please send it to me.

I got this email last week:

Thanks!  How are you using the content in this newsletter?  Let me know.
