Newark’s Remarkable Resurgence
Invest Newark & Newark Alliance
Challenge
On the heels of major investments in real estate, retail, technology and entrepreneurship, Newark’s top economic development organizations partnered with Violet PR to raise awareness of the city’s resurgence. The Newark Alliance and Invest Newark enlisted Violet PR’s expertise to position N.J.’s largest city as a prime destination for investment based on its rich cultural heritage, beautiful streetscapes, proximity to NYC and status as a higher education hub.
Solution
