Join us for the 2024 Intercity Visit!
Do you want to be in the room where it happens? This is your chance! The Greensboro Chamber Intercity Visit is the place to be when ideas that change our community begin. Over the years, projects such as the Greensboro-Randolph Megasite, the Guilford County Schools Career Academies, and Accelerate Greensboro, the Chamber’s Minority Business Accelerator, were explored and developed at visits to Birmingham, Chattanooga, Columbus, and Louisville.
Pick your city: San Antonio or Nashville!
For 2024, we’re doing something a little different. After extensive research, we’re down to two possible cities. Both have incredible things for us to learn. So we’re looking for feedback! Below we’ve detailed a little about each city, the differences in price and length of stay, and a few things we think could factor in your decision.
It doesn’t matter if you’ve been on the last four trips or you are interested in joining us for the first time, we want to hear from you. Click any of the buttons on this page to fill out the survey and interest form by September 5.
