Federal Economic Development Forum
New Administration, New Beginnings: Energizing Communities and the Economy
March 15-17, 2009
Washington, DC Metro Area
Change has come to Washington, and both opportunities and challenges
abound - from a new presidential administration and a significantly
altered Congress to the toughest economic climate in decades. Economic
developers must understand the players, the priorities and the possible
policy responses germinating in Washington that will affect our work for
years to come, in regard to both short-term economic stimulus and
long-term, sustainable competitiveness.
The International Economic Development Council (IEDC) welcomes you to
attend the 2009 Federal Economic Development Forum, March 15-17, in the
Washington, DC Metro Area. Join us for three days of informative sessions
and a first-rate lineup of speakers highlighting the relevant federal
issues facing the economic development community.
