In 1925, urban planner & historian Lewis Mumford described four “great tides” of migration that reflected the economic transformation of the US. Eight decades later, Robert Fishman (professor of architecture & urban planning at the University of Michigan) noted the large-scale return of people to global cities, labeling it the Fifth Migration. Today’s great tide, the Sixth Migration, is ebbing from global cities & towards a better quality of life.

Youngstown Business Incubator Success Story
I've been back in Colorado for about a week. I'm still buzzing from my trip to Youngstown. I'm pleased to report that the Greater Youngstown 2.0 project was well received and I expect to be able to announce an expansion of our efforts within the next month. There is international interest in our innovative approach to talent attraction and economic development. If you would like to learn more, then check out this story about us in the Youngstown Business Incubator supplement for this month's Inside Business magazine. You can also read about how the incubator is driving the revitalization of Youngstown's core. The YBI success story is nothing short of astounding and we at GY 2.0 are proud to be part of it.
