Business & Industry Council

 A region's economic viability is based on how successful its businesses are, driving the demand for talent development in a geographic area.  Thus it is a positive interaction between businesses and their available talent pool that is a key to achieving regional economic prosperity.  The SLRA Business & Industry Council is made up of a diverse group of large and small businesses, trade associations, and unions, with 14 different industries currently represented.
