Regional Chambers to Host Northern Virginia Elected Leaders Summit

From the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce:

The Northern Virginia Regional Elected Leaders Summit is a first of its kind roundtable discussion featuring the chairs and mayor of the major jurisdictions in Northern Virginia.

This event will offer regional business leaders the opportunity to learn about the economic climate in each jurisdiction, hear about new and ongoing initiatives aimed at fostering economic growth, and discover how each jurisdiction in Northern Virginia can work together for the betterment of our regional economy.

With the significant changes in our region driven by sequestration, industry shifts, and the constant innovation of our 21st Century economy, collaboration across city and county lines, like that envisioned by the GO Virginia initiative, will keep Northern Virginia on the cutting edge. This forum seeks to drive that collaboration.

Registration is available online. Entry is $30 for a member of any of the co-hosting groups, or $50 for non-members.

The leaders summit takes place Wednesday, August 31, 2016, from 8:00 – 10:00 a.m.
