Our Impact
Thank you for taking a few minutes to read about the impact of Greater New Orleans, Inc. over the past 20 years.
We are proud of the difference that GNO, Inc. has made for the region over two decades, helping to create the conditions where companies want to invest their capital, and people want to raise their family. Through these years, GNO, Inc. has been guided by three core principles:
- Relationships – Developing strong, mutually productive relationships based on trust
- Relevance – Always and only pursuing initiatives that will make a difference for our economy and community
- Results – A resolute focus on execution, and driving results
GNO, Inc. owes its success to the incredible dedication and support of our stakeholders: first, the GNO, Inc. staff, whom I would put up against any in the country for attitude and ability; then, the GNO, Inc. Board Chairs and Board of Directors, who have provided incalculable intellectual and financial investment in the mission of GNO, Inc.; also, the hundreds of GNO, inc. investors, private and public, who have made our work possible; finally, the multitude of partners, from LED, to universities, to elected officials, to other organizations, who have been by our side through this journey.
From all of us at GNO, Inc., to all of you – THANK YOU!
Here’s to the next twenty years.
