Business Before 9

Fitchburg Chamber Business Before 9 events in August and October included speakers that addressed important issues that lead to positive corporate cultures and strong economies. In August, the Fitchburg Chamber hosted Dane Arts Director Mark Fraire. He shared the data and information with members about the importance of arts and culture in a thriving economy. In October, the chamber welcomed Angela Russel, CUNA Mutual’s vice president of diversity, equity and inclusion. Russell engaged the crowd by exploring the topic of bias and discussing the power of engaging differences and promoting equity in the workplace.
