The year is winding down and what a year it has been! Here at the Florida Economic Development Council we have been hard at work to improve communications, grow our membership, and strengthen our relationships throughout Florida.
I also want to personally thank all of the members involved in the leadership team of FEDC. Board members, executive committee members, regional directors – you all have been a tremendous support to FEDC and to your peers. Together we have accomplished so much in one year – from policy achievements and growing our communications to having the voice of economic development grow stronger. You have all led the way as wonderful examples of economic development leaders. Thank you also to our investors and sponsors. With your continued support, FEDC will strive to grow our core components of communications, education and advocacy.
Our state is entering a wonderful new phase as we look to the future and pave the way for Governor-Elect Scott’s plan for job creation. Let’s all continue the hard work being done. I also ask that all members reach out to their peers and colleagues and share with them the benefits of becoming a member of FEDC. Let’s make 2011 a year of success and growth!
Have a joyous holiday season with family and friends!
Amy Evancho
President/CEO
