Onward 2.0 Ep. 3: Spotlight on Advance CT
In the latest episode of our Onward 2.0 series, we had the privilege of interviewing two key leaders from Advance CT: John Bourdeaux, President & CEO, and Erron Smith, Director of Business Development. Advance CT is a dynamic organization committed to strengthening Connecticut’s economic landscape by focusing on three critical areas: business retention, attraction, and expansion.
Who is Advance CT?
Advance CT may be a relatively new player on the scene, but they have quickly established themselves as a driving force behind Connecticut’s economic growth. Their mission is clear: to create a thriving business environment that supports both existing businesses and new ventures. John and Erron shared their vision of how Connecticut can leverage its unique strengths, including its strategic location, robust infrastructure, and the close-knit relationships that can only be found in a smaller state.
The Power of Connectivity in Connecticut
One of the key themes that emerged from our conversation was the importance of connectivity. Connecticut may be a small state, but that’s precisely what makes it such an attractive place for businesses. The ability to build strong, meaningful relationships is a cornerstone of doing business here. John and Erron highlighted how these relationships are not just beneficial—they’re crucial to success. Whether it’s connecting with local suppliers, forming partnerships with industry leaders, or accessing top talent from nearby universities, Connecticut offers a business environment where connections flourish.
Supporting Existing Industries and Attracting New Ones
Connecticut is home to a diverse range of industries, from advanced manufacturing to healthcare and technology. John and Erron emphasized how much business is already happening right here in our own backyard—and how these businesses are making significant contributions not just to the state, but to the entire country. A major part of Advance CT’s work involves supporting these industries, helping them to grow and succeed in an increasingly competitive global market.
But their work doesn’t stop there. Advance CT is also focused on attracting new businesses to the state, particularly those that can complement and enhance our existing industries. By recruiting companies within the supply chain of current manufacturers, Advance CT is helping to create a more integrated and resilient economy. This approach not only benefits Connecticut but also strengthens the broader economic fabric of the United States.
Looking to the Future
As Connecticut continues to evolve, organizations like Advance CT will play a crucial role in shaping the future of our state. Through their efforts in business retention, attraction, and expansion, they are paving the way for a more prosperous Connecticut, where businesses can thrive and contribute to the state’s economic success.
We invite you to watch the full interview with John Bourdeaux and Erron Smith to learn more about their vision for Connecticut and the exciting developments taking place right here at home. Discover how Advance CT is making a difference and why Connecticut is the place to be for businesses of all sizes.
