LIFT would like to thank the Industry, Government, University, Workforce, and Economic Development Executives who attended The Connect L.I. Partnership's roll out of a three year project to help analyze and grow the region and its companies.

This meeting was a vital presentation of the results of the region’s survey of 2,200 companies in technically driven businesses, Long Island‘s educational system, and workforce. The unique collaboration and data-driven process that led to the definition of significant and important key inhibitors to growth were presented and explained, with the data portraying a startling perspective of our region.

Future actions will be discussed and are already being implemented. Learn how your company or organization can be involved! For a recap of the presentation given at the meeting, click here, and look for more news to come...
