WHY JOIN?

We’re building tomorrow.

Private investment is the backbone of a local economy. RheaIMA creates opportunities and partnerships for private capital to work together in pursuit of common goals, like workforce development. Lock arms with peers across industry sectors when you join.

We’re overcoming obstacles.

Facing headwinds? Chances are, you aren't alone -- so why wage war in a silo when you could help form a frontline? RheaIMA brings together industry leaders with a stated mission to identify shared obstacles and then create solutions to overcome them. 

We’re bringing talent home.

Pursuing talent is a daunting task, especially when you go it alone. RheaIMA markets the Rhea County community -- and your business -- as a great place to work for professionals and families and broadens the top of the funnel for all member employers in the process.
