Grow Smarter is an initiative that brings together 80+ organizations working in a number of areas for cross-sector collaboration with key stakeholders and members of the business community.

The initiative is based around a comprehensive, integrated, data-driven community plan to enhance St. Petersburg’s competitive position and provide quality, diverse economic growth. Grow Smarter has a focus on equitable economic development, with the understanding that the vibrancy of the entire community is determined by the wellbeing of all individuals.

The Grow Smarter Summit is an annual event that brings together the Grow Smarter members, stakeholders, and community members to create conversations and connections that can positively impact the intiatitive and St. Pete. 

This year, the event will be held at the Center for Health Equity on December 6, 8:00 am-2:00 pm with the largest block of time dedicated to an expo-style showcase of six focus areas of Grow Smarter. The intention is for this to be a platform for conversation, learning, and action that can move St. Pete towards equitable economic growth.
