Business Breakfast: Tourism as an Economic Development Driver

Prior to 2012, CT’s tourism marketing budget was exactly $1. Governor Malloy renewed the emphasis on the importance of tourism to our great state’s economy with an original budget of $15 million, but it has fallen to $9.4 million. Changing our delegation’s perceptions about tourism is the first step to getting those missing dollars back. 

Join us for an important address with keynote speakers Senator Don Williams, President Pro Tempore, and Senator John McKinney, Minority Leader.

Cost: $17 members 
          $25 nonmember
          
A $5 fee will be applied to all walk-ins.
          Breakfast is included.
