Welcome Letter

Dear Community Leader:

When we started the Dayton Region Community Leader Washington Fly-In more than three decades ago, we never imagined a global pandemic like COVID-19 would shut down daily life and keep us from gathering in D.C.

In the Dayton Region, our strength has always been our ability to collaborate, our willing- ness to innovate, and our drive to get things done. In that spirit, we decided to adapt this year’s Fly-In into a virtual format. Even with the limitations of social distancing, we have the resilience and flexibility to continue our unbroken Fly-In tradition.

We take great pride in how business, government, academia, and the non-profit sector come together to support our region and “speak with one voice.” We see the Fly-In as this collaborative idea come to life. When our community leaders converge on Washington, it sends a powerful message.

That unity and strength is even more important as we face the current situation. We may not be able to connect in person, but we can still send a powerful message.

When the DDC began 25 years ago, supporting Wright-Patterson Air Force Base was a key strategic decision. We’ve seen the base’s workforce grow significantly in that time and increase contracts with local companies. We remain focused on the Dayton Region’s federal installations, including the Springfield Base and the Dayton Veterans Affairs Medical Center in addition to Wright-Patt. These installations have a combined regional annual economic impact of more than $16 billion and represent stable generators of jobs and economic development even during difficult times.

As our economy restarts, we know businesses will face new challenges. We want to make sure they are well-positioned to emerge from this challenging time. The work of the Priority Development and Advocacy Committee gives the region a strong inventory of projects that can help our economy come back even stronger.

This year’s virtual Fly-In format will use a familiar format to past years. Members of our region’s Federal Congressional Delegation will join us to make remarks and answer questions. Also presenting will be Lt. Gen. David Dean "DT" Thompson, Vice Commander of the Space Force.

Thank you for joining us as we explore this new format, and we hope we can be together in D.C. next year.

All my best,

Jeffrey C. Hoagland President and CEO Dayton Development Coalition Lorem ipsum

The Dayton Region Priority Development and Advocacy Committee (PDAC) was established as a committee of the Dayton Development Coalition to assist in establishing regional priorities for funding public projects that benefit the economic development, health, education, or quality of life in the region.

The PDAC process involves coordination by representatives from the Dayton region’s business community, local government, education, and civic organizations. Projects are initially evaluated by one of five Review Panels of subject matter experts. Review Panel members may include members from Montgomery, Greene, Clark, and Miami Counties for broad geographical representation.

Projects submitted to the process are posted on the Coalition’s website and subjected to public review and comment. The recommendations of the Review Panels are forwarded to the PDAC, which includes business and civic leaders. The PDAC list for 2019–2020 was approved at a meeting on February 19, 2020.

Projects are designated as “Priority,” “Recommended,” or “Reviewed.” Priority projects are the top projects that will make the most significant impact in the Dayton region among the projects that were submitted. These projects are the region’s top priorities for funding because they strongly meet the evaluation criteria and are expected to have the greatest regional impact. Recommended projects meet the needs of the region and would provide benefit to the Dayton region if funded. Reviewed projects are projects that have gone through the PDAC community review process and public vetting. Recommendations by the PDAC priority process are advisory only.

The Coalition manages the PDAC process as a service to the community and offers the opportunity for project sponsors to gain public vetting, peer review, community input, and recognition for projects of regional merit. PDAC Project Prioritization List

Ohio and the Dayton Region are recognized as the epicenter for AeroSpace, Research, Development & Acquisition for the Department of Defense. The DDC builds on the value proposition that Ohio is a top-tier aerospace state and that industry wants to locate near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) and its research and acquisition facilities.

The Dayton Region is the birthplace of aviation and as we move into the new century it is proving to be on the leading edge of the next revolutions in Aerospace and Defense. The synergy between our flourishing industry partners and federal government missions have and continue to give our region an unprecedented advantage both in stable and unpredictable economic situations. The DDC is committed to bolstering connections and relationships between our industry and government leaders to ensure the Dayton Region remains the #1 place to do business with the Air Force and now the Space Force. In partnership with our elected officials at the local, state and federal levels we are also ensuring OH remains the #1 military friendly state. This translates directly to more mission expansion for WPAFB, SANG and economic expansion for our entire Dayton Region.

The DDC has partnered with Governor DeWine’s Senior Advisor for Aerospace and Defense to align with the states four focus areas for aerospace and defense. The work of the DDC is in line with these four focus areas and furthermore we are aligned with the new JobsOhio Federal and Military installation sector. The DDC is under contract with JobsOhio to establish and execute JobsOhio’s tenth statewide sector, Federal and Military Installations. DDC Aerospace and Defense Executive Vice President, Elaine Bryant, will lead the statewide strategic execution under the direction of DDC President and CEO Jeff Hoagland. Aerospace and Defense

The DDC’s Aerospace and Defense Focus Areas

1. Preserve and Protect and Expand Ohio’s Defense Installations and their Missions. The DDC, along with its partners, work to develop and execute strategies to acquire new missions and retain existing jobs at WPAFB and SANG. These efforts will leverage the BRAC 2005 gains at WPAFB as well as existing Air Force and Department of Defense (DoD) centers of excellence. The DDC also facilitates the Dayton Region Military Collaborative (DRMC). The DRMC is an initiative designed to enhance communication, innovation, partnership and collaboration between our community, military, and veteran organizations, including WPAFB, SANG, and the Dayton Veterans Affairs Medical Center. The DDC conducts quarterly DRMC meetings to bring together Defense-related associations from around the region to work together on initiatives in support of the military.

The DDC is ramping up efforts with WPAFB on the use and approval of Enhanced Used Leases (EUL) as a solution to office space shortages on base. The DDC is also coordinating a Compatibility Use Plan (CUP) with the counties and municipalities surrounding WPAFB. The team is finalizing the establishment of a Council of Governments and securing Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA) funding for a study to address community mission encroachment and economic development in the surrounding areas. In addition, the Compatibility Use Plan will include Energy Resilience for WPAFB and SANG.

2. Increase the Research Portfolio and State-Wide Synergies of Ohio’s National Laboratories. The DDC leads attraction, development and support efforts of Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) capable companies to support the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). The DDC also works to establish core business clusters in areas of interest to AFRL Technology Directorates; and works closely with the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) and Wright State Research Institute (WSRI) to develop communities of interest to support technical elements of the AFRL portfolio. In addition, these efforts continue to cultivate commercialization of technologies developed in AFRL. Aerospace and Defense

3. Work with JobsOhio to Preserve and Expand the Dayton Region’s Aerospace and Defense Industry and Attract Jobs and Companies to the Dayton Region as one of Six Regional Network Partners across the State. The DDC works to devise and implement strategies to attract major aerospace prime contractors such as Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Airbus Americas, and Lockheed Martin. The DDC also devises and implements strategies to attract other aerospace companies to startup, expand, or relocate to the region. In addition, the DDC also devises and implements strategies to attract a portion of the future estimated $90 billion Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) Industry, and to seed the region to attract larger segments of aerospace production capabilities. The DDC also works to establish UAV-compatible airspace in Ohio to serve as an industry attractant.

In conjunction with JobsOhio, the DDC works to execute an Aerospace Supply Chain Stimulation strategy, building on the fact that Ohio is the #1 supplier to Airbus, #1 to Boeing, and #3 to Northrop Grumman. These attraction programs will center on existing suppliers and evolving composites and carbon fiber suppliers for future programs; also, capture Israeli defense industry in support of the U.S. aerospace market.

The DDC is a participating member of the Ohio Cyber Collaboration Committee (OC3) and is supporting the committee in the areas of Ohio Cyber Range implementation, Cyber Reserve, and Education and Workforce Development. A member of the DDC is one of the initial members of the Ohio Cyber Reserve and is involved in the planning for its phased implementation and governance. The DDC is working with regional software companies to make them aware of the Ohio Cyber Range so that they can explore its applicability to the testing and evaluation of their products.

4. Maintain and Grow the Aerospace and Defense Workforce. The DDC partnered with Ohio Lt. Governor Jon Husted, WPAFB, and the Southwestern Ohio Consortium for Higher Education (SOCHE) to execute a “Workforce we Need” effort, highlighting the pipeline of jobs the Air Force will need over the next five years.

The DDC also continues to partner with JobsOhio on talent attraction to ensure we have the right employees to support our aerospace and defense industries and their employment pipelines. Aerospace and Defense

In addition to the four focus areas, the DDC coordinates with multiple partners to support events for the Defense community. These events are critical to information dissemination, relationship building and partnering.

- The DDC is working with the State of Ohio’s Senior Advisor for Aerospace and Defense as well as U.S. Rep. Turner to plan and execute the fifth annual Ohio Defense Forum which will be re-branded as the Ohio Defense and AeroSpace Forum. Currently planned for October 5-6, 2020, in Columbus, this year’s event will expand to include the Aerospace Industry, Space initiatives, and alignment with the state Defense and Aerospace strategy. - The DDC is working with the State of Ohio as well as the NASIC Association and in partnership with NASA to plan and execute the Ohio Space Forum, now scheduled for October 29-30, 2020. - The DDC held several roundtables for defense contractors in the region to provide industry partners a platform to ask WPAFB leadership questions and will continue to host periodic roundtables as necessary. Overall, the DDC has not seen a huge impact to defense contractors from COVID-19. Officials on the calls have not seen any slow-downs, cuts, or decreased funding. - The DDC was once again partnering with LCMC to co-host the fifth annual Life Cycle Industry Days in June. Unfortunately, this event is now postponed until August 2021, but the DDC will continue to partner with LCMC to execute virtual industry events. - The DDC partnered with the Accelerant Fund, Queen City Angels, Wright Brothers Institute, and the Air Force, to hold a virtual Collider Event with a dedicated focus on training entrepreneurs about Angel Investing and how it can be leveraged with other forms of funding. The event is scheduled for August 5. In 2021, this is expected to be expanded to a formal/in-person Boot Camp training to be associated with the Pitch Day events that occur across the country. - The DDC is assisting Dayton Defense in the planning and execution of the Ohio Cyber Dialogue with Industry which is now rescheduled for October 27-28, 2020.
