A Message From Our Chair

As we conclude our three-year Strategic Plan, we reflect with pride and gratitude on the remarkable accomplishments of the past three years. Missouri Partnership has achieved significant milestones, securing several high-profile projects that have strengthened our state's economic landscape.

In Fiscal Year 2024, our team continued to attract new investment and create job opportunities while also laying the groundwork for long-term economic growth across Missouri. Our unwavering commitment to excellence, collaboration, and innovation has been the cornerstone of our success. By fostering strong partnerships and leveraging our state's unique assets, we have positioned Missouri as a premier destination for businesses.

The momentum at Missouri Partnership is palpable as we embark on the first year of a new three-year Strategic Plan. We remain steadfast in our commitment to achieving our ambitious objectives and driving the continued growth of our state. We are encouraged by the progress we have made and are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead.

We look forward to building on our achievements and creating even greater opportunities for Missouri. We are grateful for the trust and support of our partners and stakeholders, and we are eager to continue our meaningful work in driving Missouri’s economic development forward.
