NCPA LaunchBox seeks participation in COVID-19 Business Impact Survey
DUBOIS, Pa. — Professionals at the North Central PA LaunchBox have made it their top priority to help business and industry navigate the challenges of the COVID-19 outbreak. LaunchBox staff members are already looking ahead to the end of quarantine — when deemed appropriate by the governor and public health officials — and helping businesses in the region return to normal operations.
To help meet that end, business owners and industry leaders are being asked to participate in a short survey to help identify their needs and concerns during this trying time, and into the future.
Serving the counties of Cameron, Clarion, Clearfield, Elk, Jefferson, Potter and McKean, the NCPA LaunchBox has developed this short, online survey to assist in fully understanding not only the initial ramifications of COVID-19 toward businesses, but also ongoing issues that may impact those businesses once they begin to reopen. This project has been in cooperation with several counties in the region, including Cameron, Clearfield and Jefferson, along with municipalities and regional resource partners.
North Central PA LaunchBox Director Brad Lashinsky said, “One of the concepts behind this project is to be able to examine the effects of COVID-19 on businesses from municipal, county and regional levels. This will help local and county officials gain access to data that they can directly pass along in conversations with state and federal legislators to further help assist businesses through all stages of this pandemic.
“Another benefit of this survey is being able to examine the effects of this pandemic on a regional level and to utilize the skills and assets associated with all the business resource partners in the region,” said Lashinsky.
