OPPORTUNITY TAMPA BAY
In the spring of 2019, the Tampa Bay EDC hired TIP Strategies (TIP) to develop an organizational action plan for 2020-2022 with bold, focused, and amplified strategies to elevate and leverage the region’s assets. The plan is structured around four core principles, which reflect the TBEDC’s primary focus areas and strengths, and three goals, which align the TBEDC’s priorities toward a set of initiatives that will move the region forward.
