INTRODUCTION Over the past five years, major manufacturing companies have invested $2 billion in Clarksville, creating 3,500 jobs. For a city the size of Clarksville, this is an astounding level of investment that has changed the trajectory of Clarksville’s growth and development. The purpose of this study is to provide information for the Clarksville-Montgomery County Economic Development Council to use in guiding the direction of this growth and development. During the course of this study, many Clarksville leaders from Fort Campbell, education, and industry participated in surveys, focus groups, and interviews. The results are included at the end of each section to better understand the strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities open to the region. Through the Chamber of Commerce, the Industrial Development Board, the Clarksville-Montgomery County Economic Development Council, and Workforce Essentials, Clarksville has dynamic and interactive participants representing all facets of the economy. This group of leaders and level of participation are among Clarksville’s greatest assets. Clarksville has many options for continued development. It has a strong manufacturing base, substantial downtown and riverfront areas, and a highly regarded educational system, from grade school through to universities and technical training. An informal survey of Clarksville leaders was telling in the consistency of responses when asked about the desired direction for Clarksville’s future: “I see Clarksville-Montgomery County becoming a town that owns its manufacturing roots and beginnings of advanced manufacturing but to also focus on an effort around attracting professional opportunities Introduction 5
