The local business lobby group is calling on the government to support the MidWest next week, and has echoed the calls of others that this region could act as a counterbalance to growth in Dublin.
They say the M20 Cork-Limerick motorway needs to be completed, as well as improved access to Foynes Port, no increase in the cost of diesel and a review of business rates nationally.
Shannon Chamber Chief Executive Helen Downes also believes broadband could be transformative.
