We have a statewide reputation for lobbying aggressively for what is needed for a better business environment for the region. And we have been successful.
Every business that becomes a member will benefit enormously from being able to promote business, meet potential customers, learn all about what is impacting the business community in the region and keep informed on business issues. If there is something you want to know and we can’t help you, we know who can.
