Episode 165: Michael Hecht - Making the Region Stronger
Manage episode 397545678 series 2798617
Why are people from Louisiana leaving? Well, not all of them are, but there has been a subtle decline enough to make people wonder. “Jobs” is usually the answer, but there is some good news for the future, including in the energy- and tech-based industries. Michael Hecht, president and CEO of Greater New Orleans Inc. (a nonprofit agency dedicate to economic development), talks to Louisiana Life Executive Editor Errol Laborde about both the challenges and the successes of the Gulf South region.
We will also hear why Houston and Atlanta developed so quickly from once being relatively small southern towns to national economic giants.
