BCLC, in partnership with the newly established disaster coalition of Southern California Chambers of Commerce, is hosting a long-term recovery forum that will apply lessons from around the nation to the current wildfire recovery in San Diego and Los Angeles. The forum will also explore how businesses can work together with local chambers to mitigate the impact of future disasters.
Hear presentations from:
- Ruben Barrales, President and CEO of the San Diego Regional Chamber, who will speak about the current wildfire recovery efforts in Southern California, and how you can play a role.
- Experts from the International Economic Development Council and the Business Civic Leadership Center on their timely study of the economic impact of the wildfires.
- Daniel Alesch, one of the nation’s most renowned experts on long-term recovery and Emeritus Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay.
This forum is ideal for business leaders in disaster assistance and response, local chambers of commerce, economic recovery experts, and technology, retail, financial services, insurance, housing and real estate, marketing, and travel and tourism sector recovery specialists.
Breakfast and lunch will be served. BCLC will arrange for networking opportunities before and after the forum, and will also invite local, state, and federal disaster response and recovery officials to participate as well.
