The future of rural hinges on more than industrial parks.
Leadership(Strategy+Tactics)=theFUTURE.
Building off the Blueprint for the Future of Appalachia developed by our founder during his time at Shaping Our Appalachian Region, we’re carrying this framework forward to rural communities across America. A framework that hinges on a collective effort to leverage broadband connectivity. We often say, the first goal is broadband connectivity, and the other 6 are about how we leverage it for economic growth.
A strategic framework.
Building off the Blueprint for the Future of Appalachia developed by our founder during his time at Shaping Our Appalachian Region, we’re carrying this framework forward to rural communities across America. A framework that hinges on a collective effort to leverage broadband connectivity. We often say, the first goal is broadband connectivity, and the other 6 are about how we leverage it for economic growth. We use this proven innovative framework to help communities assess and impact 7 areas of focus: Broadband Access, 21st Workforce, Entrepreneurship in the Digital Economy, Healthy Communities, Industrial Expansion, Regional Food Systems, and Tourism.
A tactical approach.
You cannot win a game a of chess without moving the pieces. You can not win by thinking about what needs to be done, discussing what needs to be done. It takes action. We help you move your strategy forward through tactical activities built in 3 clusters: Convenings, Communications, and Consulting.
