Summary
What does it take to merge two organizations, reshape a brand, and help redefine an entire city? In this week's episode of "Money" Market, Owen meets with Amanda Payne, President and CEO of AMPLIFY Clearwater, to unpack exactly that. From her roots in public office to leading one of the most innovative business organizations in Tampa Bay, Amanda shares her story of how she turned a traditional chamber model into something entirely new. They dive into the bold rebrand to "Amplify," and the challenge of blending two different cultures together. The conversation expands into Clearwater's evolving identity of tourist destination, entrepreneurial hotspot, and one of Florida's top markets. They also tackle the big topics of downtown redevelopment, the role of major stakeholders, and what it really takes to create a vibrant live-work-play environment. You'll hear behind the scenes hurricane recovery details, public-private partnerships, and the power of fast action when businesses are on the line. From the Phillies' massive development vision to the future of the Bluff and beyond, this episode is a masterclass in leadership and community impact. Want to know where Clearwater is headed? This is one you don't want to miss.
