Savion Hays for Mayor
NNOW - NEWPORT NEWS OPPORTUNITY WORLDWIDE
Savion Hays—an entrepreneur, professional creative and lifelong builder of ideas with deep roots in Newport News. I’m running for Mayor because I believe our city has the people, location and potential to become a destination for opportunity, innovation and culture. NNOW—Newport News Opportunity Worldwide—is about investing in our people, building vibrant places, creating progress and bringing prosperity home instead of exporting our talent elsewhere.

NEWPORT NEWS OPPORTUNITY WORLDWIDE
Why Not Newport News? Why Not NNOW?
NNOW — Newport News Opportunity Worldwide — is a campaign to reimagine what Newport News can become.
Newport News already builds some of the most advanced ships in the world, houses major corporations and research institutions, and sits at the center of one of America's most important military, maritime and technology regions. The opportunity is here. The question is what we do with it.
For too long, we've exported too much of our talent, our ideas, our entrepreneurs and our entertainment dollars to other cities. NNOW is about reversing that flow.
We want to bring opportunity here. Bring investment here. Bring entertainment here. Build businesses here. Manufacture here. Create here. Give our young people more reasons to dream here—and give people around the country and the world a reason to visit Newport News.
Savion Hays is running for Mayor as a write-in candidate to introduce a new vision for Newport News built around People, Places, Progress and Prosperity.
From advanced manufacturing and shipbuilding to technology, tourism, entertainment, small business, waterfront development, youth opportunity and safer, stronger neighborhoods, NNOW asks one simple question:
If Newport News can build things that change the world, why can't we build a world-class city around the people who make it possible?
Why Not Newport News? Why Not NNOW?
PEOPLE — Invest in the people who make Newport News work.
PLACES — Turn our neighborhoods, commercial districts and waterfront into places people want to experience.
PROGRESS — Embrace manufacturing, technology, innovation and smarter government.
PROSPERITY — Create pathways from employment to entrepreneurship, ownership and generational wealth.
