Morrisey Outlines Vision for West Virginia’s Economy at Business Summit
August 29, 2025
Improving how West Virginia invests in potential new businesses, making the state the battery of the east coast, and reversing the trend in labor force participation were all part of plans laid out Thursday by Gov. Patrick Morrisey at the state’s premier business event.
Morrisey spoke Thursday morning on the second day at the West Virginia Chamber of Commerce 89th Annual Meeting and Business Summit at The Greenbrier Resort.
“I love seeing the great crowd here; businesses from all across West Virginia, and people coming here to celebrate the opportunity that we have right here in West Virginia, which I think is unmatched anywhere across America,” Morrisey said. “I’m happy to be here because we have a chance to have a conversation and to talk about some of the transformational projects that are underway, what’s going on in West Virginia, as well as a lot of the work that we are undertaking.”
