Helping companies connect with potential workers is the primary reason for holding the expo, but he agreed that having company officials from all over Windham County in one room should help strengthen the overall business climate.
And he said he hopes the expo becomes an annual event.
“We hope this is one way to light a fire and help companies make connections that they have otherwise been struggling to do,” Altstadt said. “A lot of people are working toward that broader goal of increasing workforce development and this is one strategy. We think this is a win-win for employers and workers in the region.”
