What is a Study Mission? This annual event produced by the Sacramento Metro Chamber provides unique insight into the challenges faced by other regions and how they successfully navigate a path to long-term regional prosperity and an improved quality of life. We will highlight parallels to the Sacramento region—strengths and weaknesses—allowing us to build on best practices for implementation while growing relationships with other engaged civic and business leaders.

Why Denver, CO? Like a memorable dining experience, the most successful communities are those that demonstrate a commitment to quality ingredients, imagination and presentation. In the last three decades, the Denver region successfully cleaned up its air, diversified its oil and gas-dependent economy, and got the nation’s largest single transit buildout rolling. With a regional spirit and proactive focus, Denver has emerged as one of the nation’s most desirable places to live and work in the country. Their legendary “can-do” attitude has created a competitive environment that attracts companies, talent and jobs.

This robust program will provide unique insights and highlight parallels between Denver and the Sacramento region. Building on best practices for implementation while growing relationships with engaged civic and business leaders.
