UPA receives award
The University Park Alliance (UPA) print marketing campaign was recognized on Thursday as the first-place winner of the Ohio Economic Development Association (OEDA) annual Excellence in Economic Development Marketing Award — Large Communities.
The award was presented at the OEDA Annual Summit in Columbus. OEDA’s excellence awards program recognizes the achievements of individuals and organizations in Ohio in economic and work force development.
The campaign is comprised of a package including an Assets of University Park folder, a Do You Have a Place Here? organizational brochure, a one-page summary of UPA’s recently commissioned Economic Impact Assessment, a one-page summary of UPA’s recently completed Akron Core City Vision Plan master plan and five article reprints.
The package is the key printed communications tool used by UPA to present its mission and advantages to site consultants, developers and funders.
UPA’s website was also recognized as a finalist for the statewide award.
