In this episode, Ari and Chris DiPentima, President and CEO of CBIA, talk about the current state of the CT economy and how the "Transform Connecticut 2023 Policy Solutions" will help unlock Connecticut's true economic potential.

 

These policy solutions sit in 3 main buckets:

• Cost of doing business
• Workforce development
• Investment in the future

 

From tax credits to immigration to housing, Ari and Chris cover a ton of ground on policies that CBIA is pushing forwarding and the work they are doing to get legislators on board.

 

In the end, we love to hear Chris say: "I'm feeling good about where we are and where the state is."
