Delaware State Chamber of Commerce recently issued the following announcement.
Event Name: PUTTING DELAWAREANS BACK TO WORK: ECONOMIC RECOVERY IN THE FIRST STATE
Date: Tuesday, July 21, 2020
Time: 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM EST
The necessary and well-considered restrictions enacted by the State of Delaware and the guidance from the CDC as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic have brought Delaware’s economy to a standstill. As we begin to emerge on the other side of the public health crisis, there is still much work to do. Just as state and health care leaders have been laser-focused on efforts to minimize the impact of the virus on Delawareans, business and community leaders must now play a vital role in getting Delawareans back to work and driving economic recovery in Delaware without a resurgence of the virus.
The workplace will look much different than it did earlier this year. Join the conversation on July 21 at this full-day, virtual conference where we will explore strategies and policies to restore the state’s economy and to enable Delawareans to safely return to work.
This conference will:
• Highlight trends in manufacturing
• Focus on how workforce development and upskilling strategies
• Lay out plans to expand broadband access to all Delawareans
• Rethink the workplace in the midst the pandemic
• Discuss site readiness and how to establish Delaware as a regional leader
• Provide budget and other legislative updates from the State’s leadership
