Columbus Partnership Information

The Columbus Partnership is a private, non-profit CEO leadership organization that exists to provide the long-term vision for achieving greater economic prosperity in the Columbus Region. Our membership is composed exclusively of 75 chairpersons, chief executive officers, or the most senior executives of Columbus’ largest companies and universities. We leverage leaders in both the public and private sectors to advance our region’s competitiveness agenda by instilling a culture of collaboration and delivering results in economic development. At the start of the decade, we launched and began executing Columbus 2020 – a comprehensive, regional economic development strategy aimed at maintaining and growing the 11-county Columbus Region as a major hub for commerce and business. As a result, Columbus is one of the most dynamic and fastest growing cities in the country with record wage growth and world-class innovation activity.
