Throughout the year, we offer opportunities for our members to connect with elected officials and engage in issues that impact our business community.

Legislative Updates: Twice a year, we host members of WNC’s delegation to the NC General Assembly to share their thoughts on the legislative sessions in Raleigh and issues impacting our community.

Raleigh Legislative Visit: We work hard to ensure the needs of Western North Carolina are being heard at our state’s capitol. Each year, the Chamber leads a trip for our region’s business leaders and local officials to Raleigh to meet with state legislators.

Intercity Visit: In some years, we invite business and community leaders from across Western North Carolina to learn from other communities about best practices from top businesses and public sector leaders.
