As a public-private non-profit charged with the 495/MetroWest regional economy, the 495/MetroWest Partnership is proud of the success of our regional employer survey with Framingham State University and our media partner, The MetroWest Daily News. As we head into our sixth year, the survey has increasingly provided regional leaders and policymakers with hard data on the business conditions facing our employers as well as top concerns for the year ahead.
To continue the success of this annual survey, we ask for a few moments of your time to participate in this important effort. Your confidential feedback is crucial to the success of this survey, which will provide real insight into our region's strengths and constraints. Two respondents will be randomly selected to win a Rail Trail Flatbread Gift Card or a New City Microcreamery Gift Card!
Please participate in our SURVEY to ensure that your voice is heard.

This survey is only open for a limited time, so the results can be reviewed and analyzed for publication by The MetroWest Daily News and its affiliate papers. Your confidential input is crucial to ensuring the 495/MetroWest Region's voice is heard.
Thank you for taking the time to participate in the sixth year of this important survey, and we look forward to sharing the results! |
