The Collaborative to Advance Energy-Based Economic Development, led by NASEO and IEDC, fosters collaboration between State Energy Offices (SEOs) and Economic Development Organizations (EDOs) to leverage energy investments and foster transformative energy and economic development partnerships. This webinar will present the Collaborative's recent report and explore the best practices, case studies, and lessons learned throughout the two-year initiative. With a panel of state economic development and energy representatives, NASEO and IEDC will discuss the five recommended actions put forward by the report:

1. Meeting businesses’ evolving energy needs

2. Accelerating siting and permitting processes

3. Supporting entrepreneurship, innovation, and small business growth

4. Addressing capacity constraints and building the workforce

5. Coordinating strategic planning and facilitating long-term partnerships
