InterCity Visit 2022

Description

Each year, the Longview Chamber assembles a delegation of approximately 30-40 community leaders to visit a peer city and learn best practices. InterCity Visits are an opportunity for Chamber members and staff, elected officials, business leaders, educational administrators, young professionals, and regional partners to gather ideas and insights from cities overcoming challenges similar to our own. What can you expect by participating in the Charlotte NC InterCity Visit?

• Understanding how to conduct a regional visioning process that involves community engagement; uses the output to redefine and communicate community priorities, and what community stands for (branding)

• Identifying best practices for business/community engagement, including focus areas, resourcing of needs, and organizing for action in “defining moments” of challenge and/or opportunity

• Applying bold, innovative, forward-thinking to economic development that involves new financing tools to unlock more of the city and region’s growth potential

• Modeling practices that enable (vs. inhibit) success and acknowledge the importance of a healthy downtown core; build relationships that support regional collaboration
