Model for Prosperity
Prosperity through productive, inclusive, and sustainable growth is the desired outcome for Tampa Bay's future. The Tampa Bay Partnership believes that achieving this model for prosperity and growth requires our region to strategically invest in the institutions, people, and programs that produce those outcomes. The four drivers for success include:
- Innovation
- Human Capital
- Infrastructure
- Quality Places
Through a collaborative process with our leadership, investors and stakeholders, we have identified four priority areas for us to focus our forward efforts toward creating the model for prosperity and building on the advantages of our region in a global economy.
- Focus I. A Vision for Regional Prosperity
- Focus II. A Blueprint for Economic Development
- Focus III. A Transportation Strategy to Support Regional Transit
- Focus IV. A Broader Advocacy and Leadership Model
