Mike Knutson over at ReImagine Rural posted some comments on economic gardening yesterday, including a brief video interview with Chris Gibbons. Chris runs the economic gardening program in Littleton, Colorado. He's also done more in the last 20 years to promote entrepreneurship-based economic development than anybody else in our field. Peruse their website, read about their results, and you'll see what I mean.
Most people in the economic development field today realize that a winning strategy must include a variety of approaches: recruiting, marketing, retention, entrepreneurship, workforce, and community development. Austin-Round Rock is fortunate to have organizations specialized in all of these various functions. But our ability to march together toward common goals will determine our position among leading U.S. regions. Brian Kelsey
