EXCERPTS – Conference Guide – Cleveland;
Cleveland-Northeast Ohio is in economic transition and its successful reinvention will depend on redeploying historic assets to new competitive arenas.
To speed economic transformation, Cleveland- Northeast Ohio is using the metropolitan business planning approach to better connect targeted older manufacturing firms to the regional innovation infrastructure.
Hence Cleveland-Northeast Ohio’s major catalytic initiative: the proposed Partnership for Regional Innovation Services to Manufacturers (PRISM) will help transition older manufacturing firms to new high-growth markets.
