About Business Forward:

With the help of more than 40 of the world's most respected companies, Business Forward is making it easier for business leaders from across America to advise Washington on how to create jobs and accelerate our economic recovery.

Together, we have organized hundreds of local briefings with Administration officials, Members of Congress, mayors and governors meeting with thousands of business leaders in more than 40 states. In 2012, we brought over 2,000 business leaders to the White House to brief the President's economic advisors.

Many of the business leaders who have participated in our briefings have seen their suggestions implemented in the Affordable Care Act, the Jobs Act, recent trade agreements and the President's budget. And many have shared their recommendations with their representatives in Congress and through op-eds and interviews with local media. To date, 98 out of 100 business leaders who have participated in a Business Forward briefing have said they would be interested in participating in another one.
