BusinessFirst Charlotte volunteers meet face-to-face with executives, owners and key decision makers in a wide array of business and industry.

During a 30- to 45-minute meeting the volunteer will ask questions about all aspects of business, including workforce, housing, education, tax structure and the overall quality of the community.

The information from the interview is reviewed by the Economic Development staff of the Chamber and the City of Charlotte for opportunities to lend assistance.

The Goal

The goal of our personalized meetings is threefold: to thank you for doing business in Charlotte-Mecklenburg, to help you solve problems and to identify trends that may impact our business environment.
