The Waterfront Pathways Program, organized by the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC), is helping to forge the future of New York’s waterfront and coastal resilience sector. The program, now in its third year, is fostering the development of firms focused on resiliency and sustainable infrastructure while providing growth opportunities for small businesses and reducing procurement disparities. The result is a more diverse and competitive talent pool, ready to address urgent infrastructure needs in and around New York City.
