As we celebrate Small Business Month, we are reminded of the extraordinary contributions that each of you make to our local economy and community. Small businesses are the heartbeat of our region, driving innovation, creating jobs, and fostering a sense of belonging. Together let’s recognize and applaud the invaluable impact of small businesses, as we continue to champion their growth and prosperity.
Tomorrow, we have our CW Professional Development Series Luncheon featuring Craig “Hypr” Andrle, Colonel, USAF, Retired, who will be presenting valuable information on “Taiwan, China, and the Threat of War”. A Chinese invasion of Taiwan would be globally catastrophic, regardless of its success of if the United States intervenes. How could this impact business? There are a few spots still available.

April was a busy month with our traditional cadence of programs/events and in addition a very successful Women in Business Spring Conference and Job Fair. Over $2,000 was donated based on a Spring Conference raffle program to the Synergy Family Services. A big shout out to the Women in Business Committee and to our members as we donated a conference room full of softly used business clothing to Mujeres Unidas de Utah.
