Partnership
Overview of the Company
The Hampton Roads Partnership is a
public-private organization that was
formed on May 15, 1996. The
Partnership represents ten cities,
six counties, and one town, equaling
nearly 1.6 million citizens of
Virginia.
Comprised of the chief elected
official of all seventeen
communities, private sector,
education, military, and labor
representation from both south
Hampton Roads and the Virginia
Peninsula, the Hampton Roads
Partnership is the only organization
in Hampton Roads that focuses on the
region's strategic issues for the
purpose of enhancing our
competitiveness in the global
economy with resulting income and
job growth for our citizens.
The Partnership is governed by two
Co-Chairmen, a Board of Directors,
which meets quarterly, and an
Executive Committee which meets
monthly. The Partnership has a
permanent staff of six.
Roughly eighty percent of the
Partnership's operating funds come
from annual investments made by
member businesses and educational
institutions and the remaining
twenty percent comes from
investments made by the localities
comprising the Hampton Roads region.
