Bob Chadwick, president of the New Castle County Chamber of Commerce, has appointed Dora Cheatham as director of the New Castle County Economic Development Council.
Chadwick led the council for 11 years before becoming chamber president last month. Cheatham most recently managed the Emerging Enterprise Center, a business incubator within the chamber.
“Dora has done a phenomenal job running the Emerging Enterprise Center,” Chadwick said. “She has boundless energy, tremendous knowledge, and a passion for driving business growth. I have enormous confidence in her abilities and I know she will do great work for the Council.”
The New Castle County Economic Development Council operates as a public/private partnership between the chamber and the county government. It works to foster collaboration between business and government leaders, while supporting efforts to improve the quality of life in New Castle County.
