WHY WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT?

The State of Maryland has lost more than 120,000 residents to other states over the past four years alone, according to a recent analysis by Maryland Chamber of Commerce.

This is not just a population issue. It’s an economic development and a workforce development issue.

Workforce development is emerging as one of the most critical priorities for Towson’s future, shaping how our community grows, competes, and thrives in 2026 and beyond. As technology evolves and talent needs shift, businesses must rethink how they recruit, train, and support the people who power their success. The Towson Growth Summit brings together leading CEOs to share their vision for building a resilient, skilled, and opportunity-rich workforce. Towson remains a place where companies, and people can flourish. This discussion has never been more essential.
