The Boca Chamber has begun efforts to identify what business looks like during COVID-19 recovery and the reopening of the economy, all while maintaining the health and safety of all residents. Reopening business and staying safe will be a delicate balance and will require the collaborative efforts of both the private and public sectors. The Moving Business Forward Initiative will bring together the brightest business minds to work with local governments - leaders across industry sectors will provide input and insight into this process. Along with data from the healthcare experts, the Chamber will be using information gathered through surveys from the business community to serve as a guide to restarting our region’s economy. “A restart will require methodical planning for potentially new processes, mandates or limitations for which there simply isn't an example to refer to. We must move forward so that we can return to work and restart the economy. As we transition, we know there are measures we will need to take to protect public health while reopening vital economic sectors”, stated CEO & President of The Boca Chamber, Troy M. McLellan.
