Connecticut Business Day
Join hundreds of your fellow business leaders Wednesday, March 4 for Connecticut Business Day at the state Capitol in Hartford.
Your voice matters—this is your opportunity to share your concerns and challenges with state legislators and help improve the state’s business climate and competitiveness.
The day begins with a welcome session and commissioner's panel, followed by regional breakout sessions that give you an opportunity to meet with your state lawmakers one-on-one.
The next few years are pivotal for shaping Connecticut’s economic future. Your attendance sends a message that businesses are a part of the solution.
Registration is free, but we strongly encourage you to register in advance.
