City of Akron
Mayoral Race

Greater Akron is at an important inflection point for our economy and for success on critical issues like innovation and entrepreneurship; workforce development; talent attraction; the development of our downtown and our neighborhoods and the attraction, retention, and growth of businesses – and the results of Akron’s ongoing mayoral race will significantly impact our region’s future.

Ahead of the Primary Election, we provided our members and the community an opportunity to engage with the candidates who responded to our request to participate in a series of roundtable events. Videos from each event can be viewed below.
