OUR STAKEHOLDERS

Regional planning and assistance efforts do not happen in a vacuum. Effective and implementable economic development planning and assistance only takes place when major stakeholders related to the economic vitality of the region are convened in an effort to address existing needs and future requirements.

Catawba Regional is in the unique position to convene the stakeholders necessary to implement successful planning, funding, and development efforts. Through relationships built over the past 50 years within the region and across the state, Catawba is capable of bringing the necessary public and private stakeholders to the table to successfully catalyze efforts throughout the diverse district.
