Seeking Breakfast Topics
The Business Climate Enhancement committee would like your input. Is there a specific topic that would help you and your business prosper and grow? Perhaps you have a product or service you would like to share with the business community.
Several times throughout the year, this committee holds a breakfast meeting where a speaker or panel of speakers are brought in to help educate our business leaders. Our goal is to ensure that the topics are informative and beneficial to the business community. It also provides a great networking opportunity. Over the next year, the BCEC will be discussing the Orchard Road opportunities, if this is something of interest to you.
Please email or call the MEDC office and let us know if other topics may be of interest to you so we can start planning our next breakfast event.
