Grand Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce Regional Policy Conference, entering its second and final day after lengthy sessions on Thursday, planned to present divergent points of view and provide multiple discussion points on a number of issues facing the state and regional economy.
Attendees will vote this afternoon to determine which of those issues should become part of a long initiative marshaling resources from throughout West Michigan for resolution. Sessions today will include investment in higher education, and the business of health care and life sciences.
Amway co-founder Rich DeVos is the keynote speaker during the luncheon. He is expected to focus on leadership and partnership topics. And the votes from more than 600 participants are expected immediately after.
Grand Rapids Business Journal reporters will continue to provide updates today as the conference continues.
