Peachtree Corners Mayor Mike Mason has been invited to join Partnership Gwinnett’s steering committee, the economic development arm of the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce, the city announced Wednesday.

Named Partnership Gwinnett Implementation Committee, the group is comprised of Gwinnett leaders who are responsible for oversight of the organization’s strategic implementation to ensure Partnership Gwinnett’s goals are achieved.

“It’s an honor to be asked to be a member of the committee,” Mason said in a news release. “I look forward to being part of Partnership Gwinnett’s efforts going forward.”

Partnership Gwinnett, the county’s first public-private effort dedicated to economic development, was established nine years ago and works in concert with the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce. Its strategy is to continue to build the kind of momentum required to take the community to the next level, putting it in the company of an entirely new set of competitors.

Those efforts include: comprehensive economic development; developing world-class talent through partnering with public schools and expanding postsecondary institutions; and through community and leadership development. Partnership Gwinnett Implementation Committee members attend quarterly meetings, events such as Movers & Makers Awards, Global Trade Summit and Redevelopment Forum and others.
