The FIRST EVER YP Development Summit was a huge success! Young professionals from across the Treasure Valley came to the Boise Centre for a half day of professional development and educational sessions from local leaders, including Boise Mayor Lauren Mclean, Adán De La Paz, Paul Hales, Erin Anderson, Jimmy Hallyburton, Chris Taylor, Allison Bruce, Dale Dixon, Mark Groves, Larry Geyer, Jeff Jackson, Gordon Jones, Jennifer Hensley, Emily Baker, Katie Gaston, and Sierra White. Then, they cheered on the Idaho Steelheads! This event was designed and executed by Boise Young Professionals, a program of the Boise Metro Chamber.
This fun and educational event was made possible by co-sponsors Lamb Weston & Vacasa; by supporting sponsors Jacksons Food Stores, Micron Technology, MassMutual Idaho, erstad; by scholarship sponsors Cutting Edge Landscape, Lamb Weston & Albertsons Companies; by headshot sponsor Better Business Bureau of Idaho, and by media sponsor Boise Weekly! The Policy Committee is made up of the Chairs of our Boise Metro Chamber Committees, Councils and Industry Boards and includes members of our Board of Advisors and Chamber Leadership. The Policy Committee meets each week during the legislative session, which is traditionally January through March. This committee helps to monitor legislation which affects businesses of all sizes, helps determine the need for advocacy efforts, and formulates position statements on notable issues and legislation. The committee works closely with the Chamber's Government Advocacy team to advocate for business-friendly state and federal policy. This video describes the efforts of the collective group in 2022. The Policy Committee is Chaired by Tom Mortell, Co-Managing Partner of Hawley Troxell Ennis & Hawley, LLP.
