  CCC’s William G. Rohrer Center will host a trio of free roundtable discussions about the current and emerging economic climates and their impact on business and industry in the state and region. Representatives from area firms and companies are invited to share their own experiences and learn from their colleagues in these open forums, where ideas will be exchanged and challenges will be discussed.
  Topics on the agenda include how to survive and prosper in a challenging market and knowing the value of your human capital. Others will include strategies to strengthen the bottom line and the availability of government funds for workforce development.

  ●  9 to 11 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 28.
  ●  1 to 3 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 28.

  •    The mission of the Next Generation Aviation Research Park (ARTP) is to promote sustained economic growth and job creation throughout New Jersey and the nation by implementing and operating a cooperative, state-of-the-art aviation Research Park that will support the evolution of the Next Generation aviation environment.
       At full build out, the Park will include seven multi-story buildings with a total of over 400,000 square feet of laboratory and research space located on the campus of the FAA William J. Hughes Technical Center which is the nation’s leading air transportation Federal Facility.

  •   January is not a big month for “don’t miss” events, But it is home to one of, if not “the,” premier events of the year—the State Chamber’s annual “Walk to Washington.”
      The tradition began in 1937 when several of the state's top business executives took a train to Washington to have dinner with New Jersey's congressional delegation. The rest is history. The Walk to Washington obtained its name when participants realized that few sit on the train; they literally walk the train mingling and exchanging business cards the whole way to Washington.
