A great week connecting, collaborating, and talking all things economic development at EDND! โœจ

One theme that continued to come up was ๐ฉ๐š๐ซ๐ญ๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ฉ๐ฌ. No one community or organization has all the answers, and that's what makes collaboration so important. When we share knowledge, build relationships, and bring the right people to the table, we create more opportunities for the communities we serve.

We loved the opportunity to network with fellow professionals, learn from one another, and share more about Tri-County's work, including our ๐‘๐ž๐ ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐š๐ฅ ๐–๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐œ๐ž ๐ˆ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐š๐œ๐ญ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐š๐ฆ (๐‘๐–๐ˆ๐) project and our work with year one ๐‘๐‡๐“๐ initiatives.

A special shoutout to Shirelle for holding down the fort back at the office while we were out! We appreciate you! ๐Ÿ’™
