Akron has always been a city that rises to the occasion—literally and figuratively. Perched at the summit of the Ohio and Erie Canal, its very name comes from the Greek word for “high point,” a nod to both its geography and its enduring spirit of innovation.
From its days as the “Rubber Capital of the World” to its leadership today as a hub for entrepreneurship, sustainable polymers, and, healthcare, Akron has never shied away from reinventing itself.
Today, Akron’s energy is focused on building a more participatory future. That’s why we’re excited to announce our partnership with Unify America to organise our upcoming Citizens’ Assembly School.
