The building blocks of Led By Us & Associates (LBU) are the foundation of true economic development for cities and fuel the passion for our work. The public and private sectors (governments, developers, businesses, stakeholders, and non-profits) share the responsibility and we can no longer operate in silos on the path to sustainable neighborhoods. LBU empowers neighborhood stakeholders with the required skill sets and resources necessary to further develop their community, businesses, and real estate. Connecticut cities such as Bridgeport, Norwalk, New Britain, Waterbury, and New London are frequently overlooked for large scale investment dollars. However, the timing is ripe for neighborhood investors, business owners, community organizers, general contractors, and real estate professionals to start engaging in small-scale development projects that make a huge impact on local communities. Community Development Community engagement is essential when determining best fit and usage for projects. Understanding the existing community landscape and growth potential plays a key role in your project’s success. LBU partners are adept at analyzing, organizing, and facilitating community engagement processes that will bolster your project’s vitality and gain community buy-in which leads to responsible community development. Business and Workforce Development Stimulating job growth, entrepreneurship, and workforce development are all key components to thriving economies. Communities that can become self sustaining by supporting neighborhood businesses and commerce are essential for urban renewal activities. LBU consults on all aspects of business development: we provide feasibility studies, opportunity assessments, business training curriculum, and other tools for sustainable business growth. Real Estate Development Understanding real estate and social equity in industrial, residential, office, and retail spaces in our neighborhoods is essential to upward mobility. All community stakeholders have the potential to engage in small-scale and infill development projects that spearhead community growth, remove blight, and stimulate local economies. By utilizing our real estate development boot camps, industry meetups, and network of experts, we can help bring projects to life. Contact Led By Us Today! |
