tailieunhanh - Best-PerFOrming Cities 2012

Cities are the engines of economic growth and they will be critical to our economic recovery. However, to create the new businesses, jobs and development that the country needs, local leaders need a step change in the way in which they support economic growth on the ground. The Government will be working with different cities over the coming months to make a series of deals that will transform the way in which local leaders drive economic development. | BEST-PERFORMING CITIES 2012 Where America s Jobs Are Created and Sustained BEST-PERFORMING CITIES 2012 Where America s Jobs Are Created and Sustained JANUARY 2013 II Milken Institute Ross C.
