The Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce and George Mason University are embarking on a partnership to help drive the local economy to a new day.
“We value our role as an economic engine, and by working closely with the Northern Virginia Chamber, together we can lead the region into its next prosperous era,” GMU president Ángel Cabrera said as the partnership was announced Sept. 21.
Representatives of both organizations will participate in a “working group” to determine immediate and long-term objectives of the partnership.
“The Northern Virginia Chamber is constantly looking for innovative ways to leverage our regional resources . . . there is no doubt that a partnership with our colleagues at George Mason University will help us to continue doing just that,” said Jennifer Aument of Transurban, who serves as chair of the business organization.
