An improved business climate. • We create the solutions for the tax and regulatory challenges that inhibit our region’s employers – and advocate for change at all levels of government. Targeted transportation and infrastructure investments. • We open doors to growth by convening strategic partnerships and pushing long-term projects to fruition. Simpler, more cost-effective governance. • We roll up our sleeves and work with elected officials to streamline our government, reducing duplication and improving its responsiveness. Positioning the region as an attractive workplace for a diverse workforce. • We are focused on creating a skilled future workforce while pooling regional resources to attract today’s top-notch talent. * SPECIAL INITIATIVE: Pittsburgh 250 See page 11 . 3 Pittsburgh Regional Alliance : “2007 Top U.S. Economic Development Group” – Site Selection , May 2008 Pittsburgh 250 Ambassador Tour of Europe: “2008 Excellence in Economic Development Award” – International Economic Development Council (IEDC) Southpointe II business park is home to national energy leader CONSOL Energy Inc.’s new LEED-certified world headquarters facility. 4 Stimulating New Business Investments The Pittsburgh Regional Alliance (PRA), the marketing affiliate of the Allegheny Conference, has recently strengthened its business development efforts in two key areas: regional partnership and collaboration and expanded worldwide outreach.
