Abstract
In this article, the author surveyed chambers of commerce in the New England region to investigate their opinions of the role that public business schools should play in regional economic development. Although schools typically emphasize the mission elements of research and teaching, the respondents tended to express greater interest in the capability of schools to offer technical assistance and adult/continuing education. The author offers recommendations for schools wishing to develop a meaningful involvement in economic development.
