Big News from the Erie Regional Chamber and Growth Partnership — After taking serious input from members they’ve produced “The Erie 300 Strategy.”

President and CEO Brandon Mendoza says it’s a blueprint outlining a clear path forward for Erie’s economic growth for the next 150 years.

It centers around six pillars for the Chamber:

Being Erie’s advocate

The catalyst to drive investment from business to real estate to air service

Developing Erie’s brand and marketing strategy

Being AI-forward

Connecting members to dynamic programming

And creating an Erie 300 Fund to build a “need for speed culture”

It aims to double down on what business and civic leaders did in the first 150 years of the Chamber.

Chamber members are just receiving digital copies of the strategy. They’ll gather at the Warner for their annual meeting tomorrow at 5:00.

The Erie Regional Chamber and Growth Partnership is rolling out “The Erie 300 Strategy.”

Chamber officials say it’s not another strategic plan to gather dust.

It’s a strategy to keep Erie a competitive and welcoming place for innovation, opportunity and long-term success.

The Erie 300 Strategy is hitting the inboxes of Erie Regional Chamber members with a video and pages of actions to move the Chamber and Erie forward like those who started the Chamber over 150 years ago.

Erie 300 reaffirms the Chamber’s role as a trusted partner, but the priorities came from every sector of the community, including criticism they took seriously.

The Erie 300 Strategy lays out clear metrics to track its success.
