The Sidney-Shelby Economic Partnership (SSEP), established in 1983, has facilitated business investment in Shelby County, which boasts the highest per capita manufacturing employment in Ohio. The region is pursuing its first data center project, learning from New Albany's experience in the industry.

The project aims to diversify the local economy, provide stable funding, and create high-paying jobs while minimizing the impact on community services. SSEP emphasizes the importance of balanced growth, drawing on historical success in economic development.
