About Team Pennsylvania

Working together for all Pennsylvanians in public-private partnership, Team Pennsylvania accelerates the commonwealths long-term economic future.

A dynamic, non-profit organization, Team Pennsylvania is a statewide entity co-chaired by the Governor and a private sector leader. We are the states trusted neutral broker and convener, and we couple collaboration with strategic investment of public and private funds to accelerate Pennsylvanias economy.

We convene cross-sector collaboratives on the most transformative economic opportunities in Pennsylvania: agriculture, energy, and manufacturing, with plans to launch a future collaboration in life sciences/biotech. Each collaborative includes the commonwealths top policy-makers and business leaders, as well as leaders of labor, academia, and nonprofits.
