About Coffee with Karl: Started in April 2020, Coffee with Karl was initially a response to the COVID-19 pandemic; it was designed to be a platform for business and healthcare leaders to provide urgent updates and engage in intimate conversations with the Tri-Cities community. Today, TRIDEC CEO & President Karl Dye continues inviting community leaders and industry experts to chat over a cup of coffee. They’ll continue to share their experiences through the COVID-19 pandemic, discuss urgent issues, and provide updates and resources as we begin the path towards rebuilding our economy.
