Join us for Networking at Lunch and hear from our guest speaker, Bridgett Massengill, President & CEO of Thrive Regional Partnership! You do not have to be a Chamber member to attend.
Bridgett Massengill serves as President & CEO of Thrive Regional
Partnership, an independent nonprofit dedicated to inspiring responsible
growth across a 16-county, tri-state Chattanooga region in the southeastern
United States. She has been with Thrive since its inception in 2012 as the
inaugural regional planning process, then called Thrive 2055, and stewarded
it through the creation of a standalone entity as the Founding President &
CEO in 2016 where she remains.
Her nearly 30-year career spans from serving as executive director of a
downtown development authority in northeast Tennessee, to establishing
her own consulting business and partnering with the National Main Street
Center, to supporting the Tennessee General Assembly as a legislative
budget analysis specialist for both the House and the Senate. She holds a
bachelor’s degree in political science from University of Tennessee at
Chattanooga, and a master’s degree in public administration: planning &
development from East TN State University. More recently, she is a proud
Fellow of the Appalachian Leadership Institute, a leadership and economic
development training program of the Appalachian Regional Commission, and
holds a practitioners certificate in Strategic DoingTM from the Center for
Learning and Professional Development at the University of North Alabama.
