Lake Economic Area Development Partnership - LEAD

LEAD recently had the opportunity to tour the Leesburg International Airport and host a Lunch & Learn with from EJ Ghobar from Florida Commerce, and Destin Wells from FloridaMakes. The event brought together community leaders and representatives from Leesburg International Airport - KLEE, Firehawk Helicopters, Skybolt Aerospace Fasteners, and Michael Baulsir from TEEM Properties to discuss resources available to businesses operating at the airport, as well as opportunities for growth and continued success.

Hosted by Tracey Dean, Airport Manager, the LEAD team was afforded an inside look at the airport and was able to hear directly from the businesses that help make it a valuable asset for our community. Conversations like these help strengthen relationships, identify business needs, and connect companies with resources that support their continued success.

Thank you to the City of Leesburg, Florida - Government and the team at Leesburg International Airport, Leesburg Commissioner Alan Reisman, Lake County Commissioner Tim Morris, and to all of the businesses that took the time to share their perspectives. We appreciate the involvement and look forward to continuing the conversation. Please contact LEAD for questions or additional information.
