CommuniTIES: economic development during COVID-19 - private and public sector perspectives

Welcome to CommuniTIES, the Baker Tilly podcast series where we speak with public sector leaders from across the firm about practical guidance to help governmental entities protect and enhance their value.

In this episode, Baker Tilly Municipal Advisors, Matt Eckerle and Mikaela Huot, discuss the economic development challenges and opportunities for communities as we continue to navigate the uncertainties brought by the coronavirus, including current trends, what we’re seeing in both the private and public sector markets and where different types of projects are on the road to reopening, recovering and resetting.

Listen to our podcast to gain insight into the questions you have related to how communities are approaching economic development during this uncertain time, the impact COVID-19 has had on current projects, financial considerations for local governments and how public-private partnerships can help communities move forward.
