OMA Board Meets in Heart of ‘Silicon Heartland’

The OMA board of directors held its Q3 meeting Sept. 20 at the historic Granville Inn in Licking County, just a few miles from the site of Intel’s massive semiconductor project.

In addition to updates on public policy, workforce services, and the 2022 election, board members heard from JobsOhio President J.P. Nauseef, who provided an in-depth look at the state’s recent economic development successes — including major manufacturing projects in all six regions of the JobsOhio network.

Additional guest presenters were Kevin Hoggatt, Intel’s director of state government affairs for Ohio, and Rick Platt, president of the Heath-Newark-Licking County Port Authority. 9/21/2022
