Greater metropolitan Cleveland today possesses all the essential ingredients to cultivate a premier 21st century workforce. With a population of 4.3 million, 23 major Colleges and Universities, and the corporate presence of 39% of all Fortune 500 companies, Cleveland has the resources to lead in innovation and invention (Yen, 2006).
