business councils
Corporate advisory groups
Business councils are advisory bodies that bring together business leaders to discuss economic policy, industry concerns, or regional development.
They may be government-appointed panels advising elected officials, or independent organizations representing business interests: The mayor formed a business council to address downtown revitalization.
Some operate at national levels, others focus on specific industries or localities.
