Advocacy
THE FORUM
Think of it as a modern spin on the town hall meeting. A gathering place to discuss issues that affect businesses, THE FORUM endeavors to inspire candid conversation among people of diverse interests and opinions. Advocacy for businesses.
THE FORUM is an exciting way of exchanging information; always unpredictable, always opinionated, always to the point. Hear a variety of Chamber members, politicians, and in-the-know persons debate current issues. Your input is not only invited, it is sought. Make sure your voice is heard.
THE FORUM is held monthly on an as needed basis to address current business issues. This event is hosted at Valentini’s Vicino Lago at 8:00 am.
Chamber member interests will drive FORUM topics. Because the FORUM is another way for us to respond to our members’ concerns, we plan on addressing some of the following topics:
- Economic development and stability in Duluth
- The image of Duluth around the state
- Local taxes
- Health care costs for businesses
- Government regulations
- Zoning issues in the city of Duluth
