A MIAMI THAT WORKS FOR ALL
We are business leaders acting in the civic interest to build a world-class Miami that works for everyone.
Miami is on the cusp of cementing its status as a truly global city, thanks to successive generations of visionary civic leaders and tenacious residents. Ensuring this growth benefits all Miamians requires intention and accountability. As business leaders who care deeply for our community, we established the Partnership for Miami to contribute to a Miami that works for everyone.
We envision a Miami that balances growth and affordability, champions smart development, shores up school systems and government institutions, and maintains the natural and built environment to ensure it is thriving and resilient for decades to come.
In the News
Today we’re highlighting two major steps forward for Miami’s future: a $2 million commitment to expand The Lucy Project’s literacy work in our schools and the release of Beyond the Grade: A Close Look at Miami’s K-12 Education.
OUR PRIORITIES
EDUCATION
Miami’s public school graduation rate reached 90% in 2023 — the highest among its peers nationwide. Yet too many students still fall behind. Expanding access to high-quality schools, boosting math and reading proficiency with a focus on early literacy, and investing in strong educators and leaders are key to driving lasting progress.
TRANSIT & INFRASTRUCTURE
The recent launch of the Better Bus Network and the long-anticipated arrival of Tri-Rail in downtown Miami are important milestones for Miami’s public transit ecosystem. Capitalizing on recent momentum is imperative to unlocking further economic growth and expanding opportunities for all residents.
HOUSING & AFFORDABILITY
By 2035, at least 175,000 new housing units—especially affordable and workforce housing—will be needed. Bold, integrated housing and mobility strategies are required to meet this need and ensure Miami remains a place of opportunity with high quality of life.
