Southeast Alaska Business Climate Survey 2021

Introduction and about you

Southeast Conference is partnering with organizations across the region, including the Sitka Economic Development Association, City and Borough of Wrangell, City of Ketchikan, Petersburg Economic Development Council, Haines Chamber of Commerce, and Skagway Development Corporation to bring you this survey for business owners and top managers in Southeast Alaska.

In addition to the annual Southeast Alaska Business Climate Survey, we are conducting a follow up survey on COVID-19 business impacts. The survey takes 5 minutes to complete, but even if you have only a few minutes to respond quickly, that would be incredibly valuable. We will use survey data to focus COVID-19 relief efforts moving forward. Only one response per business will be accepted. All individual responses are 100% confidential. Any questions can be directed to meilani@raincoastdata.com
