How It's Built in the Burg : Jessica Meyers, JEM Group

Last week we kicked off the 2022 How It's Built in the Burg #HIB series at @PursuitCoworking. Our host @TheBurgNews' own Larry Binda interviewed Jessica Meyers, CEO of JEM Group. Meyers discussed her trials and triumphs as the leader of a woman-owned construction company. She attributes much of her success to her shared vision with her talented team. JEM Group's mission is to build deep relationships and improve the lives of the clients and communities they serve. Meyers encouraged the audience to take an active role in their community, "Harrisburg's future is brighter each day, but it's up to us to heed the call for help."
