Chirico was honoured for his exceptional record of service as a CED Trustee and for his contributions to the organisation’s policy research and outreach and impact programmes.
“My role as a CED Trustee is one that I value and genuinely enjoy. I’m so proud to have the opportunity to contribute to this incredible organisation that’s spearheading reliable research, advocating through outreach and impact programmes, and really making a difference where it matters,” Chirico said. “As our world rapidly changes around us, now more than ever we need to come together to enact better policies – regardless of politics. And that’s why CED is so special and plays such an important role representing the reasoned, nonpartisan voice of business on major public policy issues.”
Founded in 1942, the Committee for Economic Development of The Conference Board (CED) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, business-led public policy organisation that delivers well-researched analysis and reasoned solutions to our nation’s most critical issues.
