President & CEO of CBIA, Connecticut’s largest business organization. Working with affiliates CONNSTEP and ReadyCT to build a thriving business climate for the benefit of all residents.
Saddened by the news that Pete Gioia, who was CBIA's economist for three decades until his retirement in 2018, passed away this week. A graduate of Hobart College, with a master's degree from the University of Connecticut, Pete was a senior consultant with KPMG, a researcher for The Futures Group and the Criminal Justice Education Center, and a budget analyst for the Connecticut General Assembly’s Office of Fiscal Analysis before joining CBIA. He was also an advisor to Governor Jodi Rell, worked with the Institute of Social Inquiry’s Connecticut Poll, and was Connecticut Team Captain for USA*NAFTA. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

Pioneering antibody discovery, optimization, and production to help treat and cure cancers and other life changing diseases, Abbratech Inc is advancing the antibody development paradigm with novel technologies here in Connecticut. The CBIA team joined State Senator Christine Cohen and State Representative Moira Rader to visit the CBIA member company in Branford to learn more about their research and innovative technologies and how the state's angel investor and research and development tax credits have helped the company grow in Branford's emerging bioscience cluster. Thank you to Michael Weiner and the Abbratech team for the tour and the opportunity to discuss how we can grow the bioscience workforce in Connecticut.

Appreciated the opportunity to speak about the needs of the labor market and how employers are recruiting and training talent as part of the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities's 119k Commission’s public hearing in New London. Connecticut has 93,000 job openings—1.3 positions for every unemployed person. One of the challenges we must tackle is addressing the mismatch between skills needs and education attainment, with a pivot to skills-based hiring and a reevaluation of degree-based requirements among the potential solutions. #connecticut #workforce #workforcesolutions #transformCT

“I would actively argue it’s the employers’ obligation to seek those people out,” says Yale New Haven Health’s Paul Mounds, Jr during a forum in New London on what’s needed to reconnect 60,000 young people with career pathways. The forum is the final in a series hosted by the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities' 119K Commission. CBIA’s Chris DiPentima said employers should pivot to more skill-based hiring, adding “we don’t have enough people actively engaged with our labor force.” #transformCT #workforce #119KCommission Dalio Education

“It crosses all different types of industries when it comes to the cost of fuel and how it impacts either the bottom line of the business or ultimately what they have to charge to consumers to make ends meet here in Connecticut,” Chris Davis, vice president of public policy at the CBIA - Connecticut Business & Industry Association, said in an interview. “Every dollar that we can save on fuel costs is a dollar that can be either reinvested into a company to offer even better goods and services, or offer lower prices to consumers.” https://lnkd.in/dfs4FSMc
