COVID-19 Orana Region Business Recovery and Re-opening Survey

Understanding your optimism for business recovery

We want to hear from you.

The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged and changed our region. Across the Orana, we have been touched by job loss and change, health concerns, worries about how our businesses can cope, and uncertainty about the future.

As we plan our recovery, the choices we make in the coming weeks and months can help us build an economy — and a region — that works for everyone.

Have your say by completing the online survey below.

The survey will be open until July 31, 2020 at 4 pm (PDT) and should take under 15 minutes to complete.

Your response will remain confidential and there is the option to complete the survey anonymously.
