We'd be remiss if we didn't give an #EconDevWeek shout-out to a few of the local nonprofit organizations who are driving economic development in their own neighborhoods throughout #FortWorth – kudos to @NearSouthside, Downtown Fort Worth, and Southeast Fort Worth Inc. for all your work!
For #EconDevWeek , we're highlighting several organizations who are key drivers of economic development in #FortWorth – our chambers of commerce!
Fort Worth Chamber, Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber & fwblackchamber are the 'boots on the ground' connecting businesses to local resources that help them thrive! 👏
Encouraging #entrepreneurship is another part of economic development in #FortWorth ! #EconDevWeek
