Save the Date - TREO Annual Luncheon Oct. 2

Save the date for TREO's Annual Luncheon on Oct. 2, 2008 where TREO's first Community Report Card will be unveiled.

As part of the implementation of the Economic Blueprint, TREO plans to issue a community Report Card on the Tucson region in 2008 and annually in subsequent years.

TREO has secured University of Arizona experts to develop the Report Card, measuring year to year how the community is doing in achieving a competitive economy.

These report cards, common among highly competitive communities, measure regional progress of indicators of economic health, prosperity and competitiveness. They tell us, based on the agreed set of measures among all of the organizations, whether we are advancing, falling behind or maintaining status quo - and most importantly, where our opportunities lie ahead.

Look for further details on TREO's Oct. 2 Annual Luncheon in the months ahead.
