Greater Providence Chamber targets small business

New forum created to reflect trends and voice issues

The Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce has unveiled a new forum for small-business professionals to voice views on issues affecting jobs, economic growth and work-force readiness. The President’s Circle, composed of leaders from a diverse group of industries, will reach out to small-business members of the Chamber to gather data on several key indicators, including new hiring and general business conditions. The information gathered will be used to craft the Chamber’s small-business agenda next year. The data will also be reported on a monthly basis to develop a snapshot of small-business momentum in Rhode Island.
