Title:
Ramsey EDA Business Networking Breakfast Event Update
Background:
Staff would like to provide an update of the 2012 Ramsey EDA Business Networking Breakfast Event.
Observations:
Staff is beginning planning/coordination of the 2012 Ramsey EDA Business Networking Breakfast Event. Below are updates on individual tasks:
- Event Date: Staff is proposing Thursday November 29
- Location: Ramsey Municipal Center, Alexander Ramsey Room
- Keynote Speaker: Staff has developed a preliminary list of options (see attached). Staff would like input/direction of the EDA to move further. One important item to discuss is the budget as it will have a direct effect on who will be available for keynote speaker. NOTE: in 2011 the EDA did not pay for the keynote speaker; and, funding was not allocated in the 2012 EDA budget as a keynote speaker. Staff recommends the EDA consider local/regional business leaders as options. For example, Allina Medical Clinic.
- Food Services: Wells catering served breakfast in 2012. Staff will be reviewing last years budget and bring back options to the EDA at the August meeting.
- Marketing: After a keynote speaker is secured, staff will develop a flyer for distribution. This will likely take place in early September.
Funding Source:
EDA Business Unit, Account: 9230.6249
Staff Recommendation:
This is an update, NA
EDA Action:
This is an update, no action is necessary.
