It’s called Vision Hampton Roads. On this edition of What Matters we take a look at a roadmap that's taking shape to diversify and strengthen the region's economy.  Its goal:  Hampton Roads will be recognized as a region for centers of excellence fueled by innovation, intellectual and human capital, infrastructure and a sense of place.  Right now, the plan is seeking public comment and you are invited to take an online survey.

Joining host Cathy Lewis for the discussion:  Dana Dickens, President of the Hampton Roads Partnership; Doug Smith with Kaufman & Canoles, and Dwight Farmer, Executive Director of the Hampton Roads Planning District Commision.
