Economic Growth Tour is an annual behind-the-scenes tour of Joplin co-hosted by the Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce and the MOKAN Partnership. The tour is open to local and state elected government officials, business leaders, representatives of public and private schools, media, and other interested community leaders. As the Joplin region continues to transform and grow, it is important for key decision makers to meet the innovators, entrepreneurs, and cultural enterprises that are attracting new talent and businesses to our city.
The bus arrives at the Chamber at 7:45 am and departs at 8:00 am sharp. We will tour various economic development projects. Thanks to our sponsors for this event, there is no cost to you to see the growth that continues in our community. Lunch is included.
