About Us
Created in 1987 as a nonprofit, public interest organization, the Vermont Business Roundtable's membership is comprised of 120 CEOs of Vermont's most active and committed businesses and employers. During the 20 years since its inception, the Roundtable has dedicated itself to thoughtful, deliberative, and well-documented analyses of significant public policy issues affecting all Vermonters, ranging from education, economic health, environmental quality, health care policy, and technology.
Board of Directors
Board members are elected for a term of three years, while officers serve two year terms. The Board of Directors meets quarterly and the full Roundtable membership meets two to four times a year.
Working Groups
The Roundtable's issue and policy analyses are conducted by its various working groups, which are headed by a chief executive and include other CEO's as its members. The groups meet as needed, depending upon the study being conducted or the issues being dealt with.
Standing Committees
The standing committees of the Board of Directors are the Executive, Governance, and Audit committees. The Executive Committee has all of the duties and responsibilities of the Board of Directors of the organization. The Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing the Roundtable's by-laws and recommending changes thereto. The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing the independent auditor's report, as well as making recommendations to the Board of Directors following such review.
