Table Partner Leads

Eight Table Partner Leads are pivotal in advancing the objectives of underrepresented populations within specific industry sectors that necessitate specialized attention in data gathering and comprehensive planning. These Leads are instrumental in ensuring that the voices of these underrepresented groups are heard and their needs are addressed in the regional economic development process.

Each awardee will receive $50,000 to convene within their industry sectors to understand the barriers to minority workforce participation, share best practices, and create a visionary path for diverse inclusion in these industry sectors.
