William Driscoll is the Vice President of Associated Industries of Vermont. Associated Industries of Vermont is the only state-wide association that is dedicated to manufacturers and their supporting businesses and organizations. For now more than 100 years, our lobbying, benefits, and services have reflected this fundamental understanding.

More than any other business association, AIV understands the economic importance of manufacturing, which not only provides the best wages, benefits, and opportunities for working Vermonters, but also the greatest support for other economic sectors.

AIV provides legislative and regulatory advocacy and representation at the state and federal levels, news and information, education, service and benefit discounts, networking, and other member services. We provide legislative and regulatory advocacy and representation at the state and federal levels, news and information, edu­cation, networking and marketing, and other benefits.

It is our fundamental belief that a prosperous private enterprise economy, free from unreasonable taxation and regulation, will provide the resources necessary to simultaneously raise the standard of living of working Vermonters, conserve natural resources, and provide social services for those unable to provide for themselves.
