The 2024 Greater Hollywood Chamber of Commerce Hurricane Disaster Conference prepares small and large businesses in our coastal economy for storm season, environmental impact, and more!
It is our goal to provide information from federal, state, and local officials on new policies to improve emergency management in coastal communities. Our panel will feature industry experts on: insurance policies, real estate, disaster clean up, system backup, and human resources. As a chamber of commerce, it is our responsibility to ensure our business community is up and running post-disaster to build a resilient, healthy economy and protected workforce.
