Join us for a virtual conversation between the newly appointed Director of Commerce for the City of Philadelphia, Alba Martinez, and Daniel Fitzpatrick, President of Citizens Mid-Atlantic Region. Alba will share her top priorities as she leads the Department of Commerce in carrying out Mayor Parker’s vision to make our city a more dynamic destination with access to economic opportunity for all. Learn how the department is collaborating with the private sector to create equitable wealth-building opportunities that grow quality jobs, build capacity in underserved communities, and make it easier to operate a successful business in Philadelphia.
The City Hall Connectors series seeks to improve Philadelphia’s business atmosphere and promote inclusive growth by offering our members meaningful engagement opportunities with the city’s elected and administrative officials. This year, the Chamber plans to feature newly appointed Mayoral cabinet members. Attendees will hear from, interact, and build relationships with these important decision-makers and offer input on how Philadelphia can further enhance its economic climate.
Once your registration is received, we will share a calendar invitation with Zoom information the day before the program. Submit your questions for the Commerce Director to Maria Flores at mflores@chamberphl.com.
