North State Economic Development Conference: celebrating 26 years of innovation and progress in the North State

Each year, the Center for Economic Development, part of the Northstate Planning and Development Collective at California State University, Chico, brings together key decision-makers from industry, government, and education to address the most pressing issues in economic development for the North State.
