Charlie Walker and a variety of special co-hosts travel throughout the Chippewa Valley having BEAR Discussions that are informative, entertaining, and interactive. The podcast is part of our Business Expansion and Retention (BEAR) Program that gives entrepreneurs an opportunity to discuss their businesses, dreams, and accomplishments. Listeners have a chance to pick up tidbits that they might be able to use. BEAR is an economic development strategy that proactively connects existing businesses with each other to discuss, share ideas, and improve community collaboration. Through these discussions the audience will gain motivation, insight, and appreciation for entrepreneurs and the important role that businesses play in developing a community-highlighting why the Chippewa Valley is a great place to raise a family and a business!
