This month’s CEDO newsletter highlights a surge of economic energy across Lane County. A $500,000 Business Oregon investment will advance site readiness at the Westgate Industrial Park, paving the way for high-wage manufacturing jobs. The Oregon Talent Concierge program is helping relocating professionals and their families integrate and thrive. And in August, the inaugural EmpowerPitch showcase will celebrate women founders presenting investor-ready ventures at PubTalk. Together, these initiatives reflect Collaborative EDO’s mission to build a stronger, more inclusive regional economy.
