UPA Urban Innovators Speaker Series
UPA’s Urban Innovators Speaker Series features world-class experts in economics, real estate development and transportation who will discuss key issues in progressive urban design that are central to attracting talent and spurring economic development.
The program provides a platform for strategically examining how new thinking and imaginative action around the development of our core city centers and close-in neighborhoods, including the University Park neighborhood, can positively impact Northeast Ohio’s economic growth potential.
UPA’s Urban Innovators Speaker Series is organized in cooperation with support from the Greater Akron Chamber and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and in conjunction with promotional partners Western Reserve Public Media through its new show “Neotropolis,” and GAR Foundation.
