Message from the CEO
Dawn P. Argula CEO and President
Greetings!
 
I hope that you've been able to join us as we kicked off the LVCC Wine Country luncheon series in May with an economic report for the Livermore Valley. Presented by a panel of experts in economic development, real estate, and local government, I always find these reports useful, validating the current state of the region's economic health with data, identifying key indicators and trends. Job growth or loss; demands on housing and all forms of infrastructure, as well as for services and products; impacts of changing demographics and what it means - valuable information that serves as a tool to guide business and government when planning for the future. Check out the presentations at wine country luncheon series.
