You won't want to miss this.

Can food deliver $126M in added taxes for NEO? We're exploring this topic in a series of webinars June 16-July 21.
Local food production in Northeast Ohio provides up to 5% of the over $15B food consumed. Research shows that if NEO were to produce 25% of demand, we would create significant new jobs, generate $4.2B in annual regional output, and produce up to $126M in annual state and local taxes. Research also shows that the total value of the Agtech market (Agricultural Technology) will reach $22.5 billion by 2025; rising from $9 billion in 2020. This represents a growth rate of 150% over the next five years. (Juniper Research)
