Help Shape Changes to Government Policy
Complete our annual policy survey to help develop Board positions on government policy and have a real voice in your community. You are eligible to join one of the Board's 15 working groups, tackling issues that concern you - from business property tax reform, to economic development and local governance, to revitalizing our physical infrastructure.
Grow Your Business
One of the major issues growing businesses face is gaining access to quality advice and information. We offer peer-to-peer support for CEOs, access to business tools, advice and mentoring, and opportunities to share information on business issues. We also offer more than 100 different events that vary by topic, speaker, industry or target audience. For example, our In Conversation With series caters to small, industry-specific groups that facilitate intimate interaction with experts and peers, while Deal Dinners facilitate business-to-business venture capital opportunities. The Business Builder Plus membership includes four free tickets to a Networking event.
Show Your Stuff
Just as you need access to information, you also need ways to get in front of important potential customers. You can host functions that highlight your particular expertise to these audiences. The Board manages all aspects of the event, including registration, catering and promotion so that you can concentrate on growing your business. With exposure to the 9,000+ members of the Board, these are excellent opportunities to raise your profile and awareness.
