CHICAGO-City mayor Rahm Emanuel unveiled Chicago’s Plan for Economic Growth today – a strategy developed at his behest by World Business Chicago and a steering committee. The plan aims to make Chicago a global player by creating jobs, increasing productivity and upping wages, according to the mayor’s press office.

The Plan presents ten key strategies that aim to advance Chicago’s economy and create more area jobs including pushing the city forward as a center for advanced manufacturing, supporting entrepreneurship in emerging sectors and creating a business-friendly environment. Additionally, the growth plan will support transportation and logistics, infrastructure and neighborhood assets. It further calls for improvements to area tourism and entertainment.

“A global city like Chicago needs a clear set of goals, a clear framework for analysis and clear strategies for economic growth and the creation of jobs,” said Emanuel in a statement. “By establishing these, the business community can work in conjunction with labor, the public sector and the non-profit to execute together and achieve these objectives.”
