CHAMBER LAUNCHES NEW LOGO!
Phew! What an exciting evening! After 50 years, it was time to retire our old logo and reveal our new one! Thank you to everybody who attended our surprise party on Thursday!
Thanks to Jay Ash, Massachusetts Secretary of Economic Housing and Development, for speaking at Friday's breakfast about Governor Baker's new economic bill and what it means for our region!
We hope that you are gearing up for an outstanding October! The Chamber is hard at work gearing up for a solid and successful 4th quarter for our members and the Chamber. I have a couple of questions for you today?
First - Do you want to get the word out about your latest business news? Has someone joined your organization? Are you celebrating some new venture? Are you planning an event? Well the Chamber wants to know! Every day we receive press releases from many members sharing their important news. We want to share more of that news with all of our followers on social media, our newsletter readers and the communities we serve at large.
David Letterman's Top 10 is probably the most well-known 'Top 10 List,' but every year The Boston Business Journal puts out a list to which the chamber of commerce world pays close attention.
That list is the top-25 chamber of commerce offices in the State of Massachusetts. Once again, we are proud to come in at #10!
As an ad guy, I like the true-grit TV ads. They're well-produced and inspiring. But after a couple views on Monday Night Football and Dora the Explorer, I couldn't help but notice that the steel being turned in the new Walmart "Creating American Jobs" campaign resembles more of a fork truck's fork being made than the plastic dinnerware or garden rake I might pick up at Walmart.
So I became curious: how will we know if Walmart succeeds in their job creation quest? And who's substantiating their public pledge to step up purchases of U.S.-made goods by $250 billion over 10 years into 2023?
