MAINE BUSINESS

How do Maine businesses factor into the intersection of economy, environment and community? Summit 2012 asserts that Maine businesses succeed with access to private and public capital and that when we target these investments we establish sustainable prosperity. In the morning breakout session hear from Jim Nimon, Economic Development Director of Sanford; Jeff Hewett, Director of Economic and Community Development at the Town of Skowhegan and D’Arcy Boyington, the Director of Economic Development at City of Brewer and learn how Maine communities are leveraging private-sector investments with public funds in a discussion moderated by moderated by Judy East of Washington County Council of Governments. In an afternoon session, Charlie Spies of CEI Capital Management, LLC; Greg Paxton of Maine Preservation and Josh Benthien of Northland Enterprises, LLC will discuss how everyone wins with the use of private funds to promote public benefits in a session led by John Moore of Bangor Savings Bank.

Summit 2012 Breakout Sessions allow you to explore in-depth the topics and issues that are important to you. At each session a moderator will introduce the topic at hand with panelists providing a brief overview of their work in the relevant area. Plenty of time will be devoted to Q&A and discussion with the audience.
