As a trailblazing Chamber, we deeply value the roles curiosity and innovation play in informing business growth and development. To better understand the challenges and opportunities facing our local businesses, the Chamber conducted a listening tour with its members.
Responses from the Listening Tour indicated that talent is the top issue and top priority for our local business community.
To support our members' top priorities, we provide and connect our members with opportunities to grow and develop their leaders and employees.

The program provides opportunities to go on tours, meet with community leaders and attend educational sessions.
