The Fundamentals of EDO
• Leadership from both the CEO & from its governing group; whether it’s a board of directors, a Mayor or a Governor
• a professional, innovative & hard working staff;
• a well funded organization so that you can stand out above the crowded competition;
• a compelling “product” so that you have something to sell such as a “shovel ready sites” research park, industrial & commercial parks or unique incubators –something that differentiates you as a community.
• Now let’s discuss Solano and it’s strategy
