LETTER FROM THE CHAIR Throughout the Greater City Chamber’s 131-year history, when difficult challenges arise, the Chamber has stepped forward to tackle issues while looking for new opportunities to build for the future. When COVID-19 hit the OKC area in March, the impacts to our business community were immediate, and for many devastating. The Chamber began immediately doing everything possible to provide information, identify potential support and look for any possible opportunity to help businesses losing revenue due to this monumental shift. At the same time, we never took our eye off the ball, keeping a strong focus on the future of . Preparing for the new convention center and post-pandemic push for tourism growth, supporting local business expansion and recruiting new companies to the region, advocating for business at our state capitol, and helping to bring businesses together for virtual networking and information. This report highlights our efforts this year, but is certainly not an exhaustive list of the work we have accomplished together. Our membership can be proud of what we have done together and confident that we can continue to imagine a bright future. When you look at the major setbacks in the City—economic trouble, natural disasters or a terrorist act—we have always ended up as a stronger and more tight-knit community afterward. I remain optimistic. People here are very creative and innovative, and Oklahomans have always been able to face adversity and grow stronger as a result. I look forward to what is next. Sincerely,

PERCY KIRK, CHAMBER CHAIR SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT AND REGION MANAGER FOR CENTRAL REGION
