NEW VALLEY CONNEXIONS

Begun in 1998, New Valley Connexions (NVC) is a Great Valley Center program focused on diversifying the economy of the Valley by providing information on new technology, clusters and communications infrastructure.

Through reports, conferences and collaborations, NVC worked to help strengthen and diversify the regional economy of the Great Central Valley. A number of GVC programs and initiatives are direct spin offs of reports and studies produced under NVC. NVC's strategies include:

  • Linking people and agencies in an effort to seek out synergies that advance the sustainability of the region
  • Promoting the use of new technologies to increase economic and social capacity
  • Supporting regional collaboration to address economic issues and help create a regional identity
  • Facilitating policy development that incorporates the economic, social and environmental needs of the Valley
  • Helping position the region to be competitive by building on the Valley's strengths
  • Increasing awareness of methods for diversifying the regional economy to support a good quality of life
