Liz Catucci — 22 Who Made a Difference in 2022

Liz Catucci has been a bit of a change agent in transforming the largest business group in the northern part of Rhode Island.

She was named President and CEO of the Northern Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce in September of 2019.

Functionally, she had six months at the helm before COVID hit, and then much of her effort was helping companies find funding sources and programs to help them keep their lights on.

Prior to taking over for the long-time CEO John Gregory, she served as a board member since January of 2016.

Since COVID began to subside, she has been out telling businesses stories.

As President/CEO, she directs internal operations and is charged with getting the message out - everywhere.

And, the organization is developing deep relationships at the State House and beyond — both with local communities and at the federal level.

She pushes efforts to shop locally and has elevated the Women’s Business Council of the Chamber.

Catucci is involved in Providence College alumni activities, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Rhode Island, Delta Dental of Rhode Island, United Way Community Advisory Board, the Stadium Theater Foundation, and the Twin River Advisory Council.

She is everywhere.

In 2022, she made a difference for the business community and Rhode Island.
