[Dr. Brandon Whipple @BWhippleKS]

Amazing crowd at the Air Capital reception, hosted by the @Greater_Wichita partnership. The event brought together over 300 aerospace industry leaders & highlighted the economic opportunities Wichita has to offer. Great to honor @JerryMoran & @SenShelby for all they do!

It’s over off 24th and 8th streets.

[Daniel McCoy @ICTBiz_dmccoy]

Don't think I'd seen this Kobe mural in #Wichita before.

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

Thanks for the props Daniel!

[Daniel McCoy @ICTBiz_dmccoy]

A spec warehouse program has had good results for #Wichita. This proposed program could do the same for #MRO #MROaviation #avgeek https://t.co/eCr68cP8H5

Love to see the support for the Special Olympics from Coca-Cola Consolidated @CokeCCBCC who flew the first Olympian to the games on “Dove 1” an aircraft manufactured by Wichita’s @TextronAviation! @CityofWichita @Greater_Wichita

[Textron Aviation @TextronAviation]

We’re thrilled to announce our longtime customer and Special Olympics supporter @CokeCCBCC will be the first aircraft to land at the Orlando Executive Airport June 4 as part of the eighth Special Olympics Airlift for the @2022USAGames.

[Downtown Wichita @DowntownWichita]

There's momentum building in #DowntownWichita at the @KHSC_KansasCOM. Watch this interview with Jeff Fluhr with Downtown Wichita and @Greater_Wichita and Dr. Tiffany Masson with KHSC-KansasCom to learn more! https://t.co/fMwhbXemWh

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

Excited to see downtown Wichita emerge as a medical education district with KHSC and the recently announced WSU/KU healthplex. Growing a stronger Wichita economy!

[Kansas Health Science University @KHSU_KansasCOM]

KHSC President Tiffany Masson, Psy.D., recently spoke with @KWCHLily about how @KansasCOM__DO will contribute to Wichita’s economic impact and help alleviate the physician shortage in rural Kansas. Watch tomorrow at 4 p.m. on @KWCH12 to hear more. #downtownwichita #Kansas

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

Just what the doctors ordered!

[Kansas Health Science University @KHSU_KansasCOM]

We’ve moved! There are still boxes to unpack and furniture to assemble, but it’s an incredible feeling to have our growing staff and faculty under one roof. We are thrilled to be in our beautiful space in #DowntownWichita and can’t wait to have students join us in August.

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

Did you know Wichita’s Stryker Sport complex hosts softball tournaments in its indoor facility? Large enough to have two game going simultaneously. Sports tourism is thriving in Wichita.

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

Great for Pittsburgh. Kansas needs to build a 4 lane 54 highway to infuse development opportunities from Liberal to Wichita to Pittsburgh.

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

This is a big win for Kansas. The new FedEx distribution center is yet another company that will help grow our economy and create opportunity for Kansans.

This isn’t just a Wichita success, this school will help our rural communities and friends. https://t.co/C3C6nS9sS0

Here on the 21st floor of the Epic Bldg welcoming Novacoast to Wichita. Cybersecurity company that is already rapidly growing here in Wichita. Great to see Mayor Whipple, Senator Moran and Commissioner Meitzner in attendance.

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

We will have to get our top team on this.

[Eli Higgins @EliTheTVGuy]

ANY GUESSES? A mystery company says Kansas is one of only two sites now being considered for a massive multi-million sq ft "advanced manufacturing plant", and would generate billions of dollars in revenue, 4k jobs @ $50k average pay. #KAKENews

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

Tell a friend, a colleague or better yet, a small business you shop at or use about the program. Don’t walk, run/speed walk to tell them.

[Brandon J. Johnson @BJohnsonICT]

For those following since the beginning, PROPEL is now at just over $400,000 to help fill the gap in access to capital for small businesses. Specifically for women and minority owned businesses!

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

A great opportunity for small businesses seeking a hand of encouragement and funding. PROPELing Wichita forward.

[Brandon J. Johnson @BJohnsonICT]

PROPEL is something that I am extremely proud of that the @CityofWichita has done.

All throughout my time in activism and as an elected it had become clear that economics was key to change and that there were barriers to access for minority business owners.

[Wichita Economic Dev @WichitaEconDev]

Giggi-up!

[Daniel McCoy @ICTBiz_dmccoy]

Re: the report of $4B for a 'secret factory' in Kansas. I don't have inside info on this, but I do remember writing about a sleepy, Midwestern company you might have heard of interested in building a Gigafactory somewhere. https://t.co/sQwieXZtL3

We’re grimacing at losing Brian. Who will do the 6pm news following Marketplace? Best of success Brian.

[Brian Grimmett @briangrimmett]

My coworkers @KMUW know me too well. The perfect last day of work gift.

Thanks everybody!
