The Business Retention and Expansion Forums

Businesses in the Lower Columbia Region are planning on investing $60 Million over the next three years.

In partnership with the Rural Development Institute, KAST, The Skills Centre and Columbia Basin Trust, the Lower Columbia Initiatives Corporation interviewed 147 businesses over the past 6 months and is now hosting three forums to share the findings with everyone in the region.

The Business Retention and Expansion survey provides valuable information to understand our business sectors, current business development climate, anticipated future growth, barriers to growth, and a basis for future economic development strategies.

The three forums will be held:

Tuesday May 28th: Trail: Muriel Griffiths Room (Selkirk College Trail Campus): 7:00-8:30 pm

Wednesday May 29th: Rossland: Prestige Mountain Resort: 7:00-8:30 pm

Thursday May 30th: Fruitvale: Memorial Hall Club Room: 7:00-8:30 pm
