State of the Region

The Greater Philadelphia region consists of eleven counties across northern Delaware, southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey. Each year, the regional business community, elected officials, and economic developers from throughout the region gather at this annual event to explore Greater Philadelphia’s leading economic development initiatives. In addition, Select Greater Philadelphia releases its annual Regional Report, a comprehensive analysis of how our region compares to others on a number of key indicators. State of the Region is the culminating event of the Regional Spotlight Series.
