Bend Oregon's Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Architect: The Roger Lee Story

Roger Lee is the CEO of the Economic Development Council of Central Oregon (EDCO), which has been responsible for economic strategy for the area, recruitment of businesses, and the expansion of commercial air services and commercial parks. Jim Schell, a prominent community builder for Bend, rightfully called Roger "the architect for the entrepreneurial ecosystem of Bend." Roger is considered by many to be the king pin of the Bend entrepreneurial world and the shining example of private and public collaboration at its best.
