Marketing Knoxville + Oak Ridge
There's a lot of talk in the media about Innovation Valley's new campaign to boost the economic development of Knoxville and Oak Ridge. Competition to recruit new business and grow existing industry is fierce in the southeast, so Innovation Valley (a partnership of chambers of commerce and economic development agencies in Knox, Blount, Loudon and Roane counties, Oak Ridge and Tellico Lake area) is raising funds to support a five-year campaign. The organization hopes to create 30,000 jobs, increase existing business jobs by 19,000, create more than $3 billion in capital investment, increase per capita income to $45,000, and increase high school graduation rate by 20 percent. Support this Knoxville and Oak Ridge marketing initiative any way you can, and click here to read more here.
