Business

Students of the Public Sociology course completed a study of the business sector in Northfield during the winter of 2009. Potential academic civic engagement projects are outlined for the business sector in addition to a comprehensive presentation of the findings in the Business Sector section of the ACE Website.

Data:

The Business Sector includes an economic background of the sectors containing quantitative information on the Northfield economy. This project also provides a sector description, which outlines and evaluates the business sector's current state based on field research and data collection, and a sector assessment, which provides a picture of the local economy from the prespective of business leaders. 

This site also provides a list of local business organizations, policy issues and recommendations for action related to the Northfield economy, and a list of requested projects by community members.
