‘Embrace diversity as a path to prosperity’

October 04, 2022 2:39 pm • Last Updated: October 04, 2022 2:39 pm

As an entrepreneur in the heart of Norwich, I have witnessed first-hand the outstanding work of the Global City Norwich program and, like many, I applaud Chelsea Groton’s plans to continue to support the growth of our community through diversity. The mission of this program has my full support and I look forward to engaging in future initiatives that embrace diversity as a path to prosperity.

Thank you to Global City Norwich’s first director, Suki Lagrito. We thank you for your years of dedication and wish you great success in your next chapter.

Robert Bell
