John S. Knight House – Outstanding Retrofit of a Historic Structure Award

Greater Akron Chamber

On Tuesday, May 10th, the Greater Akron Chamber held its 2022 Annual Meeting where over 800 of Greater Akron’s business, non-profit, and civic leaders came together to network, celebrate, and reflect on the work we have accomplished over the last couple of years.

GAC presented their updated strategic plan, with priorities centering around workforce; equity and inclusion; downtown revitalization; leveraging polymers assets to advance growth; business development and support; and business advocacy.

Congratulations to the 2022 H. Peter Burg Economic Development Leadership Award recipient, County Executive Ilene Shapiro. Thank you for all your work and continued dedication to this community, empowering young women and girls, supporting entrepreneurship and women in business among so many other things. You are so deserving of this award.

Thank you GAC for including Metis Construction Services in the conversation.
