Ed Morrison · BFD Learning Moment: Cincinnati’s regional strategic action plan
February 13th, 2009
This morning the Cincinnati region released its regional strategic action plan.
Let no one accuse the business and community leaders behind Agenda 360 of thinking small.
The sweeping regional action plan has goals for the Tri-State that are beyond lofty: Create 200,000 net jobs in the 15-county region by 2020; add 150,000 young professionals to the work force by that time; and ensure that every household earns at least 250 percent of the federal poverty level so everyone here makes enough to pay their bills and care for themselves and their families.
Agenda 360’s vigorous goals not for meek
You can download a copy of the report from this page. The local newspaper included the plan in 160,000 copies of the newspaper today.
The Action Plan is the result of a two year effort led by the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber of Commerce and involving about 1,000 volunteers.
Two years ago, the leaders of Agenda 360 released a launch video on YouTube.
