Thousands of jobs created in Boone County in 2012

New and existing companies created or committed to create thousands of jobs in Boone County in 2012, in part due to efforts by Northern Kentucky Tri-County Economic Development Corportation.

As chair of Tri-ED's Board of Directors and chair of the business retention and expansion committee, I was pleased to assist with the launch of NKY Boost, an enhanced effort to serve our existing businesses in Boone County and Northern Kentucky. Our goal is to visit primary industry employers in Boone County on a regular basis. We will be meeting with companies that directly create jobs in fields of advanced manufacturing and technology. Through these meetings, we will help our existing companies address workforce needs, identify expansion opportunities and facilitate solutions to any challenges they are facing. Duke Energy's sponsorship and ongoing support of this program is a groundbreaking move for the community and will have tremendous impact on our business base.
