Business needs a stronger voice in the blogosphere and so the Salt Institute joined today with ten other associations - representing sectors as diverse as energy, transportation, telecomm, manufacturing, retail and consumer goods - to launch BizCentral.org , a community blog for business associations, the Salt Institute announced today.

The charter members of BizCentral.org may represent very different industries, but they support common pro-growth economic principles like free markets, free trade, and low taxes. But, while each of the industries has a unique story, the collective story of how business and industry satisfy basic consumer needs and what public policies can deliver sustainable economic security is a message that will interest and inform the influentials who we expect to participate in the blog discussion.
