The Virginia Chamber has announced registration for the Blueprint Virginia 2030 Regional Tour. Virtual meetings will occur in each of the nine Virginia regions to foster regional collaboration to provide input for Virginia’s next statewide strategic plan.

“As Virginians prepare to elect a new Governor in November, we believe that the time is right to update Blueprint Virginia and set even more ambitious policy goals to achieve long-term economic growth,” said Virginia Chamber President & CEO Barry DuVal. “We must be proactive and remain vigilant as our Commonwealth works to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the coming months, we will call upon Virginia’s regional leaders and industry experts to analyze state and regional economies and identify specific economic drivers.”

The Top of Virginia Regional Chamber members are primarily in Region 8 and can register for the webinar at:

Working with Local Government: The Top of Virginia Regional Chamber will be hosting a Lunch & Learn session on submitting Request for Proposal (RFP) and Request for Quote (RFQ) to the local government to keep as much work as possible at our local business level. Attendees will hear from local government officials to learn how to get qualified to work with Government Entities, learn where to find RFPs, and learn how to respond to RFPs.

A request for proposal is a document that solicits proposal, often made through a bidding process, by an agency or company interested in procurement of a commodity, service, or valuable asset to potential suppliers to submit business proposals.

Attend Lunch & Learn May 25, 2021 from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Learn more and register at: regionalchamber.biz
