👉 The Philadelphia Project, initiated in 2014 by the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School and the City of Philadelphia, aimed to revitalize the city's economic and social landscape through a series of strategic investments and initiatives. The project focused on leveraging public-private partnerships to address key challenges such as poverty, unemployment, and infrastructure decay. By fostering collaboration between local government, businesses, and community organizations, it sought to create sustainable economic growth, improve public services, and enhance the quality of life for residents. Key components included the creation of innovation hubs, workforce development programs, and targeted investments in underserved neighborhoods, all designed to stimulate job creation and attract new businesses to Philadelphia.
