This year has come and gone in a flash, but what a year it has been! We surpassed our first-year goal for our new five-year plan, INNOVATE Jackson County, Power of Partnerships, grew Chamber membership by more than 8%, witnessed a record-breaking year in tourism, executed the inaugural State of Education Address, and so much more.
INNOVATE Jackson County consists of five initiatives: Workforce
Solutions, Economic Vitality, Public Policy and Advocacy, Destination Marketing and Tourism, Investor Relations, Communications and Marketing. I encourage you to review the highlights of our major accomplishments within year one of our new five-year plan.
None of this could happen without our exceptional members, community partners and investors who give of their resources and believe in the work we are doing. Thank you for a successful 2022, and we look forward to even greater things in 2023!
