We’re in the room where it happens! CBIA’s 210th Annual Meeting is underway! “Together, we are making a difference and building a brighter future—not just for our companies, but for our communities, our state, and the generations to come,” says @ChrisDiPentima. #ReimagineCT

“Whether we agree or disagree, you’re always there at the table working to find a solution,” Governor Ned Lamont tells the hundreds of business leaders at CBIA’s 225 Annual Meeting. #Connecticut

“Everybody in this room has overcome something because they’re still here. There’s no special sauce. There’s a perspective of knowing that I can overcome anything,” Ryan D Leaf and his wife Anna Kleinsorge share their powerful story with the crowd at CBIA’s Annual Meeting.

Delighted to welcome seven new directors and celebrate the reelection of five current directors to CBIA' board. These leaders bring diverse perspectives and a passion for #Connecticut. Excited to get to work building a vibrant economy with opportunities for all! #reimagineCT

“I can sell a lot of things about Connecticut. I can’t sell a megawatt that’s more expensive than anywhere else,” says Connecticut - Make It Here's Dan O'Keefe, calling high #energy costs an "existential threat" to the #CTeconomy during a Hartford Business energy policy forum. hartfordbusiness.com/article/state-…

Connection, energy, reasons to smile—last night's Annual Meeting had it all! From our Hamilton-inspired opening to powerful insights from Ryan D Leaf and Anna Kleinsorge, Governor Ned Lamont, Lee Co's Marietta Lee, and J.P. Morgan’s Matt McSpedon, it was an unforgettable night!

We’re still buzzing about last week’s Annual Meeting! Thanks to Ryan D Leaf, Anna Kleinsorge, Governor Ned Lamont, Lee Co’s Marietta Lee, J.P. Morgan's Matt McSpedon, and the 700+ “in the room where it happened!” As Lee said, “It’s our moment. #Connecticut’s future is ours to shape.”

Ever wondered how your morning coffee gets to your cup? “There is a lot that goes into producing your daily cup of coffee,” Omar Coffee’s Nicholos Bokron tells the CBIA #BizCast. “Not only is it how the coffee is grown, but then it’s how it’s processed.” cbia.com/news/small-bus…

Jeffrey Beckham’s commitment to smart fiscal management has been instrumental in stabilizing the budget and supporting the #CTeconomy. Look forward to continue working with Joshua Wojcik to leverage Connecticut’s strengths to drive long-term growth. cbia.com/news/issues-po…
