2024 Business Walk
NOVEMBER 15th, 11am-2pm
Taking the Pulse of the Region’s Business Climate
In its fifth year, the Greater Newport Business Walk brings together business owners with elected officials, government representatives and economic development organizations to gather feedback on the business environment.
This year we will be visiting businesses in Newport County - Jamestown, Little Compton, Middletown, Newport, Portsmouth and Tiverton.
​
Small teams of volunteers will be visiting businesses between 11am-2pm on November 15th to conduct a brief interview that will take about 15-20 minutes. Information gathered from the interviews will be included with the results of our annual business survey.
Showcase your business and share your feedback on what it's like to do business here. Space is limited - sign up today!

NEW! Take Our Business Survey!
The Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce is conducting a Business Trends and Outlook survey to gather information directly from business owners to assess business conditions in our region.
As a business owner in Newport or Bristol County, we encourage you to complete this brief survey. Individual responses will be kept confidential. It should take no longer than 10 minutes.
​
​Your feedback assists the Chamber and its partners in developing business support systems and in advocating for legislative change on behalf of the business community.
​
​Our goal is to conduct this survey annually to track and adapt to changes in the business environment.
Business Walk Reports
Information collected from the interviews is developed into a report with recommendations to improve our business climate. The findings are shared with all Business Walk participants, government officials, business leaders and the broader community to help meet the needs of our businesses.​
