Steven Anthony, vice president of business development with the Economic Development Corporation of Kansas City, has been appointed economic development director for the City of Miami Beach.

“Steven brings a winning track record to Miami Beach not only in economic development but also in banking and finance,” said Miami Beach City Manager Eric T. Carpenter in announcing the selection, which received unanimous consent from the Miami Beach City Commission.

Anthony has served as chairman of a private equity firm, a senior economic development manager at Pepco Holdings, a business advisor to the Washington Area Community Investment Fund, and most recently served as vice president of business development.

“With each new role comes the opportunity to build, grow and inspire,” shared Steven Anthony. “I am grateful to the mayor, commission and city manager for entrusting me to build upon the momentum of a city already renowned for dynamic growth. Strategically located at the crossroads of commerce, innovation and culture, Miami Beach is poised for even greater success. I am eager to work with my colleagues and community stakeholders to foster new opportunities and sustainable development that will ensure Miami Beach continues to thrive as a world-class destination to live, work and play.”

Anthony received his bachelor’s degree in business administration from Dillard University in New Orleans and a master’s degree in real estate from Georgetown University. He was recognized by Dillard University in 2018 as a 40 under 40, the 2023 DCI/Jorgenson Consulting award for Top 40 under 40 in economic development, and a Kansas City Tomorrow Class 45 Alumni that recognizes both civic and business engagement.

Anthony will start his new position in May.
