Project Title:
Crossroads to The Delta Project
Host Community or Region:
California
Host Organization:
City of Antioch
Located an hour from Silicon Valley, Antioch’s “Crossroads to the Delta” project is designed to revitalize the local economy, address commuter challenges, and promote a sustainable business ecosystem. Utilizing strategic partnerships, innovative industry development, and data-driven planning, the project addresses issues such as lengthy commutes, limited local job opportunities, and underutilized city resources. The ERC Fellow will focus on six key initiatives: establishing local business associations, attracting water-based tech startups, development of an IT workforce base, marketing our waterfront facing industrial zones, building a supplier diversification program, and evaluating the small business recovery programs. The project aims to contribute to Antioch’s recovery, sustainability, resilience and vibrancy.
