Join your fellow North Kansas City Business Council members and guests for a "double-header" program. We will be celebrating both the 30th Anniversary of the creation of the North Kansas City Business Council as well as a stunning collection of recent investments in North Kansas City totaling more than $200 million dollars.

Long-time fellow North Kansas City business owner, Jim Chappell, founder and former owner of Chappell's Restaurant & Sports Museum, will share a reflective look back at the changes made in the North Kansas City business scene over the past 30 years. Looking forward, we will hear the stimulating outlook of the two consultants who facilitated the recent update of the Business Council's strategic plan: former KCMO Mayor Sly James and his business partner, former Chief of Staff to the Mayor, Joni Wickham with the firm of Wickham James Strategies & Solutions.

The Business Council's "Investing in North Kansas City 2023" program will help you learn more about the dozen of so transformative major investments in North Kansas City in recent months as well as others that are committed to begin construction soon.
