Greater Fort Wayne Inc. has unveiled an aggressive 10-year economic development action plan for the entire community. Called “Allen County Together,” the plan challenges us to build a community that’s more high-growth, innovative and inclusive. Each of these characteristics is underpinned by three “bold projects” with high yield goals and initiatives. As the Number One fastest growing metro area in the Great Lakes region, Fort Wayne is ranked in the top 25% of metros nationally. WBOI’s Julia Meek discusses how the plan will impact the area’s long-term growth and what directions this will take with John Urbahns, Greater Fort Wayne’s CEO & Visit Fort Wayne’s Marketing Director, Kristen Guthrie.
