I’ll be at the Texas Economic Development Council’s 2012 Winter Meeting in Galveston on Thursday talking about what I learned working in Washington last year. The presentation will cover:
- Federal strategies for supporting regional economic development
- Why clusters matter…at least to the people holding the money
- Successful models in urban and rural communities
- What Texas EDCs can do to be competitive
