TRADE ORGANIZATION

"The Business Council is made up of thousands of member firms, including hundreds of chambers of commerce and professional and trade associations. Our members are large, such as Kodak and Xerox, and small such as Mitchell Ross Associates, Architects, PC and GEM Associates. The Council's members employ more than 1.2 million workers... The Council was formed in 1980 as a result of a merger of the state's two most powerful business groups -- Associated Industries of New York State, Inc. (1914) and the Empire State Chamber of Commerce, Inc. (1945)."
