COVID-19 is a rolling-disaster that has reshaped the business landscape. Things are changing on an hour to hour, day to day basis. To help prepare for a full recovery and the possible application for businesses' financial assistance, the Southern Economic Development Council will be conducting a series of business surveys to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on business operations in our 17 member states.

As a business executive, we would very much appreciate your response. It will take approximately 7 minutes to complete the survey. Your responses are confidential. Responses will only be reported in aggregate. If you ask for help, SEDC will reach out to you personally if your contact information is provided.

The results will be used to inform local and state elected officials, government agencies, and others.

Thank you for your support!
