Marana business thrived through March Madness
by Ed Stolmaker | Tucson Local Media
The Marana Chamber’s plans for Spring of 2018 include the same principles that have carried us this far: our caring and friendly culture, our willingness to think out of the box, and our continued mission to be the voice of business that works to build economic growth and quality of life in our community.
To this end, we recently had our Business Connections Economic Development Luncheon at the Highlands at Dove Mountain. Chamber members were able to learn about the contributions from the Arizona Commerce Authority from Keith Watkins, senior vice president, Economic/Rural Development. Positive initiatives included a statewide masterplan for Broadband, Forest restoration, working towards Arizona’s FAA app for Unmanned Aircraft Systems test-region designation, Smart borders, and workforce development facilitating non-traditional labor supply sources.
