Join us to hear from Georgia's Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger at the Signature Luncheon presented by the Brookhaven and Greater Perimeter Chambers, on a variety of topics including Georgia's Business Climate.
About Georgia's Secretary of State:
Brad Raffensperger is Georgia's 29th Secretary of State, first elected in 2018 and overwhelmingly re-elected in 2022.
A lifelong conservative Republican, he moved to Georgia 40 years ago to raise a family and start a small business. As a licensed structural engineer, Professional Engineer, licensed in 40 states, and a licensed General Contractor in Georgia, and other states, Raffensperger successfully founded Tendon Systems, a provider of high-strength steel for construction projects. Under Raffensperger's ownership, Tendon Systems grew to become the southeast's largest post-tensioning specialist contractor with approximately 150 employees and projects in over 40 states. Brad also founded Trillium Structures, a structural design consulting firm with commercial mid-rise and high-rise projects throughout the southeast.
Raffensperger was elected to the City Council in Johns Creek, Georgia. Three years later he was elected to the Georgia House of Representatives where he then served for two-terms, and in 2018 Georgia voters elected him Secretary of State. The Secretary's top priority is secure and accessible elections. As Secretary of State, Raffensperger delivered the largest implementation of voting machines in the history of this country, on time and on budget. Under the leadership of Secretary Raffensperger, Georgia modernized its election system by adding its first auditable paper ballot system and giving the power to secure Georgia’s elections directly to the voter. He is the first Secretary of State to pass legislation requiring photo ID for all forms of voting, and the first to hold counties accountable to voters by expanding polling places. Brad and his wife Tricia started out as high school sweethearts and have now been married for over forty-five years.
They raised three sons and immensely enjoy spoiling their three grandchildren. They are members of North Point Community Church.
