Windham Leadership Series: Vermont Futures Project 12/22/25

Brattleboro Development Credit Corporation (BDCC) has hosted the first session of the Windham County Leadership series. The program will feature Kevin Chu, Executive Director of the Vermont Futures Project, a nonpartisan organization answering the mission question: “How can we use data to support the evolution of Vermont’s economy towards a thriving future with opportunity for all?” The session, called Vermont’s Futures: Numbers, Narrative, and What Comes Next, will focus on new research and insights that help frame the economic landscape in a way that helps organizations, communities, and long-range planning. Chu will guide a conversation about forces shaping Vermont’s economic landscape and what Vermont’s latest workforce, housing, and demographic indicators mean for the region today. He will highlight current data, surface emerging trends, and create space for direct, useful conversations about where strategic opportunities are emerging.

The Windham Leadership Series will bring together leaders from across the region who want access to timely information and clear data for meaningful cross-sector discussion about the forces moving our economy. Each session features a speaker who’s achieving results, someone with practical experience, strong data, or insights that help us see new possibilities for Windham County. The series will support practical learning and encourage participants to compare notes with peers navigating similar decisions.
