2016 INITIATIVE STRONG ECONOMY & BUSINESS CLIMATE

Grand Junction is known as a great place to

live and work. To ensure this stays the case, it is

imperative that we work together to have a

strong economy and business climate.

By interviewing job creators in select industries

to identify challenges and barriers for growth

we can work to provide information and access

to resources that can help solve these issues on

an individual basis. The Chamber will also work

to expand those resources in areas, such as, Air

Service and Broadband in an effort to make

sure the Grand Valley has what the business

community needs. As we do this, monthly

economic updates on the state of the

economy, along with an annual Economic

Summit will continually provide the local

business community with the updates they

need.

In addition, an annual Business Health Care

Summit will work to provide local businesses the

information and resources needed to navigate

today’s ever-changing healthcare industry.

2016 INITIATIVE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT & TALENT RECRUITMENT

Workforce is a key to a strong business

community. To ensure our workforce is skilled

and ready to enter the community, programs

such as Hire Me First will work to provide

students with demonstrated technical

proficiencies, 21st century workplace skills, and

job showing experiences that will put them a

step ahead of the rest, while also giving

elective high school credit.

A partnership with the Mesa County Workforce

Center will also provide the opportunity to

pursue third party verification that our

community is ready for job growth through the

ACT Work Ready Community Certification,

giving potential employers another reason to

conduct business here in the Grand Valley.

Leaders are also an important part of the

workforce and it’s never too young to plant the

seeds of success! Our annual Young

Entrepreneurs Academy does just that, offering

middle and high school students the

opportunity to successfully start and run their

own small business and begin building the

foundations for our future business community!

Key Deliverable: A skilled current workforce and a pipeline of students prepared to

enter the local workforce or start their own small business by actively

working with other key players in the community including

government and education.

Page 19

2016 INITIATIVE STANDING UP FOR BUSINESS

Protecting businesses from harmful government

practices, such as, unfair fees and regulations is

a main focus of our Chamber.

By providing regular access to policy-makers at

the local, state, and federal level, a

constructive dialogue can take place between

leaders and the business community, which

leads to a more favorable economic climate.

Through legislative video conferences,

Chamber Days at the State Capitol and local

Chamber events, we can assertively convey

our position with the decision makers that

impact our business community.

In addition, we actively produce regular

updates on current legislation and candidate

endorsements through our Board of Directors,

that will provide the Chamber Membership the

information they need to determine who and

what is standing up for business in our

community!

2016 INITIATIVE STRONG ECONOMY & BUSINESS CLIMATE

Grand Junction is known as a great place to

live and work. To ensure this stays the case, it is

imperative that we work together to have a

strong economy and business climate.

By interviewing job creators in select industries

to identify challenges and barriers for growth

we can work to provide information and access

to resources that can help solve these issues on

an individual basis. The Chamber will also work

to expand those resources in areas, such as, Air

Service and Broadband in an effort to make

sure the Grand Valley has what the business

community needs. As we do this, monthly

economic updates on the state of the

economy, along with an annual Economic

Summit will continually provide the local

business community with the updates they

need.

In addition, an annual Business Health Care

Summit will work to provide local businesses the

information and resources needed to navigate

today’s ever-changing healthcare industry.

2016 INITIATIVE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT & TALENT RECRUITMENT

Workforce is a key to a strong business

community. To ensure our workforce is skilled

and ready to enter the community, programs

such as Hire Me First will work to provide

students with demonstrated technical

proficiencies, 21st century workplace skills, and

job showing experiences that will put them a

step ahead of the rest, while also giving

elective high school credit.

A partnership with the Mesa County Workforce

Center will also provide the opportunity to

pursue third party verification that our

community is ready for job growth through the

ACT Work Ready Community Certification,

giving potential employers another reason to

conduct business here in the Grand Valley.

Leaders are also an important part of the

workforce and it’s never too young to plant the

seeds of success! Our annual Young

Entrepreneurs Academy does just that, offering

middle and high school students the

opportunity to successfully start and run their

own small business and begin building the

foundations for our future business community!

2016 INITIATIVE STANDING UP FOR BUSINESS

Protecting businesses from harmful government

practices, such as, unfair fees and regulations is

a main focus of our Chamber.

By providing regular access to policy-makers at

the local, state, and federal level, a

constructive dialogue can take place between

leaders and the business community, which

leads to a more favorable economic climate.

Through legislative video conferences,

Chamber Days at the State Capitol and local

Chamber events, we can assertively convey

our position with the decision makers that

impact our business community.

In addition, we actively produce regular

updates on current legislation and candidate

endorsements through our Board of Directors,

that will provide the Chamber Membership the

information they need to determine who and

what is standing up for business in our

community!
