Leading the FutureThe state of Georgia is blessed with a vibrant economy and unparalleled quality of life however, in an ever changing global marketplace in order to compete, Georgia must lead. The Georgia Chamber has launched a new initiative to lead the future of this great state, Georgia 2030.

To keep pace with the rest of the country, Georgia’s economy

must grow nearly 40% by 2030.

Fortunately, the 1.9 million people will help us process over

2.8 million new containers at Georgia’s ports –which equals

about 75% more volume.

We will add 1.9 million people that will fill over

1 million new jobs.

There will be over 134,000 new commercial take-offs and landings at Hartsfield-Jackson

International Airport.

Economic Growth

40%

What Does This All Mean?

New Georgians could also add over 1.5 million new cars to our

roads, use more water and 16% more energy.

New Georgians will also make Georgia a more diverse place to live.

To keep our economy humming, we’ll need nearly 18% more

postsecondary degrees and 38% more primary care physicians.

Our new majority-minority state will see millennials in the

workforce grow by 20% while our senior population

rises over 50%.

So How Will the Georgia Chamber Respond?

Georgia 2030 is an ambitious plan to expand Georgia’s role in global commerce, cultivate a world-class workforce, bolster economic mobility, improve long-term job creation, and support diverse, thriving communities.

To pull it off, we need your help. Participate in our town hall meetings, listening sessions or focus groups.
