Bruce Specter

At heart, I am an economic development entrepreneur and world class connector. I love what I do. I specialize in business and economic development through strategic community partnerships, fostering public/private/academic collaborations that create functional, sustainable clusters and innovation hubs. These hubs are primarily centered around higher education centers.
With over 20 years successful experience in strategic partnership development, effective business networking as well as integrating new businesses into the community, I assist my clients in organically growing business and personal value through a thorough understanding of needs and goals, providing guidance and customer-first advice to achieve results.
As a subject matter expert in business networking and urban core economic development, I have been quoted and published in print and online, including The Wall St. Journal, Reuters, MSN, Bankrate.com, Psychology Today, MSNBC, The Grind, Northern Nevada Business Weekly and the Reno Gazette Journal.
