CEAD’s 3rd Annual Mid-Summer Symposium

Building Our Community Road Map: Collaboration, Clusters, and Data Insights

Discover how strategic, data-driven analysis is identifying key industry clusters essential for Northern Kentucky's regional growth.

Following Janet’s keynote, a panel of community leaders will discuss actionable next steps and explore how critical factors—including the development of a capital strategy and addressing contributing factors like education, housing, talent, and infrastructure—can drive sustainable growth and prosperity throughout our region.
