You're invited to our Annual Meeting this Thursday! |
| David Goodman |
It's going to be exciting this Thursday night as we talk about the past, present and future for Tiffin and Seneca County, Ohio.
- State Development Director David Goodman will talk about the transformation of the Ohio Development Services Agency, about how it helps create jobs through its 70+ economic and community development programs, and what the future holds.
- I will share my economic development vision and what some of our larger initiatives will be for the coming year.
- Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, we will honor some area businesses and partners who have made a big difference in our community.
We still have room, so please reserve your spot by contacting our Director of Development Karen Bowers at [email protected] or by phone at 419.447.3831. You can also make online reservations.
