Business owners and leaders across the state are being urged to weigh in on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and their needs in 2021 in a new survey that will be shared with the Maine Legislature.
The Maine Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives, Maine State Chamber of Commerce and the Maine Tourism Association have combined on what they say is a comprehensive business study to try to capture business insights, the 2021 Moving Forward Business Survey.
The survey, which the organizations are urging business leaders to take part in, is available online through noon on Monday, Dec. 28.
Cory King, the survey s author and executive director of the Southern Midcoast Maine Chamber, stressed that even though many Mainers have opinions on the future of business, the survey is for business owners, executives and managers.

As Kennebunkport Town Manager Laurie Smith recently pointed out, this was before the State of Maine released its checklists and safety guidelines for businesses.
