A Letter from Chair Greg Graham
It is with great pleasure that I address you as the 2024 Board Chair of the Broken Arrow Economic Development Corporation. As the Chairman and CEO of First National Bank, I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to collaborate with the board, community leaders, and stakeholders in fostering economic growth and prosperity for our beloved city.
Our goal is to attract and retain businesses that not only contribute to our city’s vibrancy but also enhance its overall well-being. The success of this mission is made possible through the unwavering support of our investors and community partners, who have fully funded the four-year Amplify BA strategic plan.
As we embark on the journey outlined in the strategic plan, focusing on key areas such as Workforce Development, Talent Attraction, Business Retention & Expansion, and Innovation in 2024, the Broken Arrow Economic Development Corporation team continues to work hard at achieving these goals. Your support is instrumental in their dedicated efforts to propel our community toward continued growth.
With Broken Arrow experiencing strong growth, our business community is expanding in tandem. The Broken Arrow Economic Development Corporation views this growth as a collective victory for the City and its residents.
I look forward to the exciting challenges and opportunities that 2024 holds for us. Together, let’s continue to build a thriving economic environment for Broken Arrow.
