Keystone Edge is hitting the road.
 

We're headed west on I-80 and getting off at I-79 for our trek to Northwest PA next month, a trip that coincides with the PA Department of Community and Economic Development's "On the Road" visit to the region. The two-day tour occurs during Pennsylvania International Week, which will connect 20 PA-authorized trade representatives from around the world, regional service providers and exporting companies through events in and around Erie on Sept. 17-18.

 

We've chosen the only totally independent book store in town, the Erie Bookstore, as our location to connect with local entrepreneurs, innovators and others who are helping move the region forward. 

 

Coffee's on us -- just meet us at the Flagship City Cafe, which the 91 year-old Erie Bookstore opened earlier this year next door to its home at 915 State St, between 12 noon and 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 18. 

 

We want to hear about transformation, who's driving it and where it's happening. Help us discover what's next in Northwest PA, and we'll report on what we find.
