Since our 1st Industry Summit on Nov 28, 2018 which introduced the concept of Industry Clusters (to a sold-out crowd which gave rave reviews) the Southern Tier has moved to an industry-cluster mindset. Many people felt it was the best government-run conference ever because the industry clusters crossed political and jurisdictional boundaries and brought together many city, county and multi-county organizations that were rarely aligned with themselves or the objectives of the private sector companies.

When you think of the Southern Tier, maybe think of: train manufacturing, lithium ion batteries, specialty glass, ceramics, advanced optics, apple wine, hemp infused wine, craft beer, beer ice cream, Greek yogurt, Spiedie sauce, goat milk, maple syrup, bluestone, sports (especially baseball) and a whole lot more.
