About this book

The Regional Industrial Development Corporation of Southwestern Pennsylvania is a nonprofit organization that has played an integral part in rebuilding the Pittsburgh region’s economy over the course of eight decades.

This book showcases the efforts of RIDC to renew and improve the Pittsburgh region. From revitalizing abandoned steel mills and industrial sites into thriving business and technology parks to transforming underutilized land into locations built for job-creating companies, the organization has created a unique blend of economic development advocacy, community and regional revitalization, and high quality job creation that could be a model for other regions that were once powerhouses of America’s industrial economy.

Inside, you’ll learn more about:

The history and future of the Pittsburgh region’s economy
The shift from factories and mills to artificial intelligence, robots, and life sciences
The process of revitalization and the people behind the diversification of Pittsburgh’s economy
