TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) – How does college sports influence Tallahassee’s economy? How can blogging help a business grow?
Those are just a few of the focal points as more than 500 local business and community leaders gather this weekend for Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce’s annual Community Conference.
WTXL ABC27 is proud to be a sponsor of this year’s sold out event being held at Omni Amelia Island Plantation Resort.
The annual event brings business and community leaders together in a setting where big picture ideas are pitched and where we learn where Tallahassee’s business climate is headed in the future.
What happens this weekend could have a long lasting impact on those who call Tallahassee home. WTXL’s Greg Angel will lead our team coverage of the event with live broadcast coverage on ABC27 and coverage online. For updates throughout the event, be sure to check out WTXL.tv’s special conference page and our social media pages on Facebook and Twitter.
