Cuyahoga Next Advisors (CNa) is a network of individuals and organizations working together to increase the economic competitiveness of the county region. Initiated by the Cuyahoga County Commissioners in May 2004, Commissioner Peter Lawson Jones convened the group to help the County identify transformative economic development initiatives.
Through innovative partnerships with local organizations, Cuyahoga County has implemented several initiatives to provide capital to entrepreneurs and bolster the innovative technology capacity of the region. The Cuyahoga Next Advisors have played an instrumental role in assisting the Department of Development to design and implement innovative programming. Department of Development convenes Quarterly CNa meetings with regional leaders to discuss and learn and achieve regional alignment and collaboration. Currently there are 120 members of the network representing 68 different companies and organizations.
