The BCW has a hands-on approach to improving access to services, encouraging new business development and improving workplace safety for all of those who live and work in Westchester.
By routinely bringing together leaders from all fields, the Business Council of Westchester has also helped forge and strengthen relationships that are integral to advancing our county.

“Heading into my second year in the BCW, I can honestly say that my membership has yielded benefits that I never anticipated. Not only does
the Council make me feel immediately connected to the up-to-the-min- ute climate of the county’s business community, as a member you come to believe feel that you can actually make a difference with your own experience and creative input. But perhaps most valuable is that in addition to the serious work that gets done in the Council all year long, it is also a very welcoming group of business professionals, and I’ve made many new friends there.” —Ben & Jerry’s-Mount Kisco
