Modernizing New York’s Infrastructure

A city is only as great as its basic infrastructure. New York is far behind other global cities in the modernization and maintenance of its transportation and other public assets. A problem that is further compounded by the city’s $45 billion infrastructure repair need over the next five years.

The Innovation Economy

Advanced technology is the fastest growing sector of the New York City economy, but still represents only 5% of its economic output. The Partnership champions private and public sector initiatives that reinforce the city’s strengths as a hub for innovation and a magnet for global talent.

Education & Workforce Development

The Partnership is working to engage employers in aligning Career & Technical Education (CTE) programs in the city’s public high schools with current industry trends and needed skills. This includes support for initiatives like Computer Science for All and the CTE Industry Scholars Program.

Maintaining New York's Competitiveness
