Southwest Virginia has a legacy of driving energy production. Great to dive into the energy sector with @WillHPayne with @CoalfieldLLC as he shared examples of how community involvement and collaboration can increase economic opportunities in rural areas. #VRLI #InvestSWVA

Back recently from Wyoming learning about their efforts to attract new industries to energy communities, much like our success in Southwest Virginia has resulted in 789 new jobs over the last 4 years. Grateful to a team pulling double duty to advance a new vision for the region.
