Developed by The Leadership Academy and launched in March 2009, MemphisConnect provides a gathering place for diverse city-shaping Memphians to share the opportunities, initiatives and activities that inspire them to make Memphis home.
Following our launch we were recognized by Memphis Fast Forward and are now proud to be a part of the most ambitious plan for accelerating economic growth and prosperity that Memphis and Shelby County have ever seen.
In 2011, we partnered with Simple Focus to redesign MemphisConnect.com. Simple Focus is partnering with us in the ongoing effort to promote Memphis’ economic prosperity. Learn more about Simple Focus at simplefocus.com.
The Leadership Academy recruits, cultivates and engages diverse talent in order to drive Memphis forward. The Academy delivers programs that empower individuals and inspire them to further develop the strengths of our city.
MemphisConnect is part of MemphisED, one of four Memphis Fast Forward initiatives to accelerate economic growth and quality of life in Shelby County.
Simple Focus helps local and national brands take on the Internet with simple ideas, design and technology. Deliberate by design, we hire only the best people: experienced, talented, and thoughtful. It’s also worth noting that we’re generally happy people who love our industry and care for your brand like it’s our own.
