Program: 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Marriott Rocky Hill, 100 Capital Boulevard, Rocky Hill

When will businesses begin to prosper once again? The answers to those questions will determine where your company should look for business, investments, or mergers and acquisitions.           

This program features a panel discussion with members of the Connecticut Regional Institute for the 21st Century and other research groups who will discuss solutions to the state’s fiscal challenges. Panelists will review studies on long-term care, state and municipal spending, and prison reform.
