Description

The Georgia Chamber is hosting a series of virtual and safe, in-person planning events known collectively as the 2021 Reimagined New Georgia Economy Tour. Presented by Wells Fargo, the Reimagined New Georgia Economy Tour will gather input and data from all regions of the state to prepare a planning strategy for the future. The next stop will be held at Wiregrass Technical College, September 22 at 12:00. “Our goal with the Reimagined Tour is to listen and collect information from hardworking Georgians that can help us plan a more resilient economy,” shared Georgia Chamber President and CEO Chris Clark. “In 2016, we conducted a similar tour that identified key trends Georgia would face in the coming years. With the onset of COVID-19, factors that were to evolve over 10 years, rapidly took shape in 2020, demanding a re-evaluation of what we would need to consider in our planning for the next decade. This reimagined strategy will deliver some of those answers and help us prepare for the future.” 

"The Reimagined New Georgia Economy Tour provides valuable information to assist Fitzgerald and the Ben Hill County area in planning for the future,” says Melissa Dark, President and CEO of the Fitzgerald-Ben Hill County Chamber of Commerce. “We look forward to working with the Georgia Chamber in hosting this event and providing feedback from our community for how Georgia can best move forward.”
