Strategic Plan
Invest in the Future of Greater Green Bay
The Greater Green Bay Economic Development Strategic Plan is the first of its kind for the region. The plan took 16 months and hundreds of people to carefully create what we want for Greater Green Bay in the future.
What’s most crucial about the plan is the hundreds of community members from business, government, academia, and nonprofits who co-created the plan and are implementing and owing the plan’s 11 initiatives. Its mere existence tells legislators, funders, and others how seriously our community takes its initiatives – and its future – because we’re all vested in one master plan.
Thank You to the current investors of the plan
