Buffalo Billions Project
“A Path to Renewal: The Buffalo Billion Investment Development Plan” serves as a roadmap for implementation. Developed by the Western New York Regional Economic Development Council, it identifies six high-level strategies and the unique assets that will move the region forward on the path to sustainable, next-economy growth. High potential sectors include advanced manufacturing, health and life sciences, and tourism, while key enablers include entrepreneurship, workforce development and smart growth. The strategies are mutually reinforcing and together provide a framework that encompasses, contextualizes and aligns existing efforts, and guides future economic growth initiatives.
Six goals of the Buffalo’s Billions Project
- Advanced manufacturing
- Health and life sciences
- Tourism
- Entrepreneurship
- Workforce development
- Guides future economic growth initiatives.
ETA completion of Solar Panel Factory= Summer of 2017
*These sectors, which the Buffalo Billions projects aims at targeting are similar to our own targets. However, the BB’s initiatives are somewhat vague and it isn’t clear what steps the State government will be taking to enhance growth in these six individual sectors. This is precisely where their project leaves off and ours picks up. Our project singles out a specific location (i.e Buffalo Central Terminal) and divides/allocates funding to distinct regions of the terminal
- Improving the view of Buffalo for increased tourism because of its vicinity to Niagara Falls in Canada and other tourist destinations..
- Solar panel factories
- A solar panel array at a former Bethlehem Steel plant in Lackawanna built by BQ Energy, a renewable energy development company
- A data and customer service center for Yahoo!
