About the Action Plan

The 2012 Summit Action Plan provides a roadmap for promoting California’s jobs and competitiveness. Prepared by leaders from across California, the Action Plan identifies specific actions that we can take to secure California as the Golden State.

Through seven Signature Initiatives, the Plan presents recommendations on the state and local level to add value to our business climate by investing in infrastructure and people and reducing the cost of doing business by streamlining our complex regulatory process.

How was it created

The Signature Initiatives based on high-priority issues identified at 14 regional forums held around the state from February through April 2012. These were further developed by cross-regional Action Teams and then refined at the first-ever California Economic Summit on May 11, 2012.
