There are a lot of new economic investments happening in Ohio, promising thousands of well-paying jobs. Defense contractor Anduril recently announced a production facility that plans to bring in 4,000 jobs, set to begin production next year. Intel is working on building two semiconductor plants expected to open around 2030, creating 3,000 well-paying jobs, and cost a total of $28 billion dollars.
These are some of the biggest economic investments the state has ever seen.
However, this is one problem for Cleveland, those developments are in central Ohio.
Tuesday on the “Sound of Ideas,” we will discuss what’s happening in Northeast Ohio on the development front and what lessons may be learned from Columbus.
