The Business Information Group at Georgia Southern University needs your help.
 
The research team at BIG is working on a survey project to gauge the level of engagement between Georgia Southern’s varied departments and its regional partners in economic development, business and local government. The purpose is to measure the university’s current levels of economic development and community engagement activity as well as generate planning goals to increase the regional impact of the university moving forward.
 
The feedback we receive from you and your members is a vital part of designing the future growth and engagement of Georgia Southern throughout the coastal and southern regions of Georgia. Please send this survey out to your membership and business in your community. The survey is anonymous and should only take a few minutes to complete.
