Diversifying the Valley’s economy has been a talking point for a number of years. Some of that effort has been devoted to drawing in businesses and jobs from other states. California recently received a lot of that focus.

But is the Phoenix area doing a good enough job of retaining businesses that started here and helping them expand?

On Wednesday, the Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce officially unveiled the economic development effort "Phoenix Forward."

We talked about it with Todd Sanders, the chamber’s president and CEO.

Steve Goldstein was a host at KJZZ from 1997 to 2022.
