Economy: UCF Med School Classes Start Monday, Mark Big Change

Next Monday marks a significant day for our community with the official opening of the UCF Medical School in Lake Nona’s “medical city.”

The economic and job growth potential for this area – both in the short and long-term – is enormous and has the potential to impact future generations. It started several years ago. Monday it will hit another milestone. Tomorrow? That’s up to our local leaders.

I was recently sent an e-mail by a voter asking my plan for job creation.

I am a believer that it is not the role of government to create jobs, but rather to create a business-friendly environment that is predictable and fair. A few points of my plan I shared with him include:

  • Eliminating Government Red Tape
  • Establishing an Innovation Fund to nurture middle stage companies and attract new industries
  • Becoming a Champion for Job Creation in our Region
