"The growth and success of a community depends upon the people who support it," Dorsey says in a statement. "We're eager to meet business owners, listen to their stories, introduce them to one another and unite their neighborhoods."

The series kicks off in Dorsey's hometown of St. Louis, Mo. In the first chat, participating local businesses will include Sump Coffee, Whisk Bakeshop, Cherokee Street Bike and Scarlett Garnet. "The more business owners realize the benefits of staying local, the more St. Louis will grow," says Scott Carey, the owner of Sump Coffee, in a statement.
