This annual report will provide an overview of our economic development wins, networking opportunities, member- ship growth, and the many ways your chamber has served you, but I’d like to hit some highlights here. The Little Rock Technology Park held its grand opening celebration in the spring. The Tech Park is a huge success story for our region and a hub for innovators and entrepreneurs. As of October, 38 companies had moved in, and it was 83 percent leased. Phase 1 came in $2,500,000 under budget and Phase 2 is in the early planning stage. Did you know Latinos make up the fastest growing demographic group in our state? The chamber wants to serve this growing population, and major strides were taken toward meeting the needs of Hispanic business owners. The newly launched Hispanic Business Committee seeks to bridge the gap between Spanish- and English-speaking communities in our region. When it comes to workforce education, we’re thrilled that the North Little Rock School District has experienced such success with their Center for Excellence, which opened in August with 400 students enrolled, and offers career strands of medical professions, engineering, computer science, advanced manufacturing, and transportation distribution and logistics. The Little Rock School District has also launched its Excel Careers for Advanced Professional Studies, which offers classes in health professions, technology solutions, teacher preparation, and construction trades. Starting at the high school level to prepare young people for the workforce will pay big dividends for our region. Starting at the high school level These are just a few of this year’s accomplishments that are close to my heart, but, with your help, we’ve filled these pages with success stories. Thank you for a wonderful year! to prepare young people for the “workforce will pay big dividends for our region.

LOVE, LITTLE ROCK CAMPAIGN The chamber, with the help of Stone Ward and Aristotle, used the Amazon HQ2 deadline as a platform to launch the widely-acclaimed Love, Little Rock campaign. A break up letter written to Amazon in a full-page ad in the Washington Post, a new lovelittlerock.com website, a social media blitz, and a plane flying an “It’s not you; it’s us” banner over the Amazon headquarters in Seattle had a publicity value of $2.2 million and a potential audience of 1.5 billion, according to Cision, a company specializing in assessing the effectiveness of advertising and marketing.

LITTLE ROCK TECHNOLOGY PARK The Little Rock Technology Park, in conjunction with the Little Rock Regional Chamber, held an event on October 11 celebrating recent tenant successes at the park. Opening in March of 2017, the LR Tech Park counts 38 companies among its current tenant base. The turnkey space earmarked for small or startup technology-based companies is now 83% leased. In addition, Phase 1 construc- tion of the tech park came in at $2.5 million under budget. Plans for Phase 2 are already underway.

LITTLE ROCK PORT AUTHORITY CONTINUES REAL ESTATE GROWTH In 2017, the Little Rock Port Authority acquired 421 acres, bringing the total number of acreage purchased to 578 since 2016. The authority will continue to buy land in 2018 for potential industrial tenants and already has an additional 75 acres under contract. In addition to the land acquisitions, the port authority will be building a new dock at their slackwater harbor, which will bring the total number of docks at the port to three. The Little Rock Port has over 40 businesses that employ over 3,500 people.

SOUTHWEST LITTLE ROCK BUSINESSES PARTNER FOR IMPROVEMENT In early 2017, a group of businesses in southwest Little Rock began meeting to identify ways to give back and improve the community in which they are located. After several meetings, they formed the Southwest Little Rock Alliance (SWLRA), operating as a committee of the Little Rock Regional Chamber. The alliance consists of businesses and nonprofits who are committed to increasing the quality of life for citizens living and working in the southwest Little Rock area. The SWLRA commissioned a report by the Arkansas Economic Development Institute to determine what improvements residents and key stakeholders believe are needed in the community. The report was presented to the SWLRA in December 2017. The Alliance is currently analyzing the report and looking at ways the group can alleviate some of the issues and help with the opportunities recommended within the report. Members of the alliance include Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas, Goodwill Industries of Arkansas, Arkansas Food Bank, First Security Bank, Outlets of Little Rock, Arkansas Children’s South- west Little Rock Community Clinic, and J.A Riggs Tractor Company.

2017 ANNUAL REPORT 13 ADVOCACY 2017 LEGISLATIVE SESSION During the 2017 legislative session of the Arkansas General Assembly, your chamber staff was busy at the capitol tracking legislation that could impact economic development, public edu- cation, and public safety. Two noteworthy issues we tackled are as follows:

Although Arkansas voters overwhelmingly passed the “Issue 3” economic development amend- ment to the Arkansas Constitution in November of 2016, our work was not finished. Chamber staff worked with our legal team, the State Chamber, and local chamber representatives to craft the enabling legislation that was favorable to the economic development process, while protective of cities, and shepherd it through the legislative process to see it become law.

In addition, the chamber joined Governor Asa Hutchinson in opposing a so-called “bathroom bill” for Arkansas. We strongly believed that such a bill was unnecessary and would have a neg- ative impact on the state’s economy, as seen in the hundreds of millions in lost business in North Carolina after a similar bill was signed into law there in 2016. The potential negative impact in Arkansas wouldn’t have been limited to just tourism and entertainment dollars. Passage of a bathroom bill would have also served as a deterrent for companies looking to locate or expand in Arkansas. With the Governor’s leadership and the help of the business community, attempts to pass such a bill were defeated in committee. LEGISLATIVE RECEPTION Presented by AT&T During the 2017 legislative session, the chamber hosted a reception honoring the members of the 91st General Assembly and state constitutional officers. MEETINGS WITH ARKANSAS CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION Washington, D.C. Chamber leaders spent time in Washington meeting with the entire Arkansas congressional delegation about issues concerning the business community.

HISPANIC BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT Two-thirds of those immigrat- ing to Arkansas from outisde the U.S. are Latino. These immigrants and their children represent the fastest growing demographic group in our state. The entrepreneurial spirit is clearly visible in Hispanic business owners, and the chamber is seeking new ways to serve them.

Hispanic Business Seminar The chamber partnered with the Mexican Consulate to offer a seminar delivered entirely in Spanish, courtesy of Beacon Legal Group and FYI Taxes and Insurance. Topics included various business structures and formation, as well as tax and other financial issues related to operating businesses in Arkansas.

Hispanic Business Committee Seeing the need to bridge the gap between the Spanish- and English-speaking business communities, the chamber created the Hispanic Business Committee. Members range from small to large businesses and include both nonprofit and for-profit businesses.

Chamber Signs MOU with Mexican Consulate The chamber signed a memorandum of understanding with the Mexican Consulate in Little Rock. The MOU is designed to connect Hispanic entrepreneurs to the thriving startup ecosystem here and is the first of its kind for specifically assisting Hispanic entrepreneurs.

WOMEN’S BUSINESS LUNCHEON Each year in October, the chamber hosts one of its most popular events, the Women’s Business Luncheon.

Mandy Richardson, Publisher of Little Rock Soirée, moderated. 16 LITTLE ROCK REGIONAL CHAMBER SMALL BUSINESS AND DIVERSITY

CHAMBER ON THE GO This year, the chamber launched Chamber On The Go which brings chamber services to small business members across the region. Since many small business owners are unable to attend chamber events, this program brings the chamber to them. Visits allow chamber staff to connect small business members to other local organizations and chamber resources to help their businesses thrive. They also provide an opportunity for feedback through surveys on the challenges and opportunities facing business owners and to promote their business through cross marketing on social media plat- forms. Since its launch in June, Chamber On The Go has visited more than 50 small businesses.

SMALL BUSINESS SUCCESS SERIES A large number of chamber members are small business owners, and the chamber wants to ensure their success by providing free training on topics our members have requested. In 2017, the chamber hosted training sessions covering two ?? areas of interest: CHAMBER ON THE GO Social Media Tips for Small Businesses VISITS The chamber partnered with the Arkansas Small Business and Tech- nology Development Center to present a Lunch & Learn seminar entitled How to Boost Your Sales Using Social Media. This training featured Marla Johnson, CEO of Aristotle, sharing her social media expertise. The session was targeted for either startups or established small businesses to learn how to develop sales and marketing strat- egies through strategic storytelling and listening on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Pinterest.

Google Online Marketing Seminars The chamber hosted small business programing with Google on how members can better use search engine optimization for their businesses. The program was an all-day event broken down into three sessions: real estate, financial services, and lodging, attrac- tions, and entertainment.

Funded by Fifty for the Future and facilitated by the Arkansas Economic Develop- ment Institute at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (AEDI), Phase 1 of Think Big was a year-long visioning process that brought together young professionals ages 25-40 with the goal of improving Little Rock’s overall quality of place and making it a community in which young professionals will want to live and work. Task forces were formed for each of six study areas to define problems and develop imple- mentable strategy proposals. Those areas of study were Economic Development, Public Education, Public Safety & Governance, Transportation & Environment, Arts & Culture, and Diversity & Inclusion. Over a 12-month period, the task forces met in monthly meetings facilitated by the staff of the AEDI. In September of 2017, after many meetings, presentations, town halls, and focus groups, the task forces refined their recommendations and compiled them into a report that outlines the problems or challenges of each designated subject study area, potential solutions, and poten- tial funding sources for those solutions. Think Big is now in Phase 2 – the implementation phase. To view the report, keep up with the progress, and volunteer, go to thinkbiglittlerock.com.

28 LITTLE ROCK REGIONAL CHAMBER EVENTS EVENTS BOWLING FOR BUSINESS

Strikes and spares were the name of the game as chamber member teams battled for trophies and bragging rights for yet another year at Bowling for Business, presented by Mainstream Technologies, Inc. The set-’em-up- and-knock-’em-down networking tournament sold out quickly again this year. The 32 five- person teams all went home winners, but some were indeed awarded prizes, even if they weren’t exactly worth showing off. Prizes went to teams and individuals for highest and lowest scores. The first round is a team competition among the chamber’s members and groups. The second round is all networking as bowlers mix and match to forge new business relationships while knocking down pins and knocking back – well, you get the idea. Oh, and don’t forget the competition for best team shirts. This year’s winner was Ring Container Technologies.
