New Castle County Breakfast: Exploring Innovation

Join us at the New Castle County Breakfast, part of our annual County Breakfast Conversations series, on Thursday, October 29, 8:00 - 10:00 a.m. at the Waterfall Banquet and Conference Center in Claymont, DE.

The New Castle County Breakfast will explore how the culture of innovation in New Castle County is driving local economic development and accelerating regional growth.

Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in the dialogue as key New Castle County players discuss their involvement in the county’s economic development. The panel discussion, moderated by WHYY's Tracey Matisak, will feature Hon. Chris Coons, New Castle County Executive; Ernest Dianastasis, Managing Director, CAI; Chairman, The Delaware Business Roundtable; Chairman, First State Innovation; and Dr. Patrick T. Harker, President, University of Delaware. Panelists will highlight state, academic and corporate partnerships that are fueling Delaware’s entrepreneurial climate.

Select Greater Philadelphia will provide an update on its progress as it relates to innovation in our region and attendees will have an opportunity to meet Chamber President and CEO, Rob Wonderling.

In its 6th year, County Breakfast Conversations is visiting eight counties throughout northern Delaware, southern New Jersey, and southeastern Pennsylvania to explore how Greater Philadelphia's leading industry sectors are changing where we live and work and making our region an attractive, competitive place to do business.

The next County Breakfast will take place in Philadelphia County on November 12.

There is no attendance charge for Chamber members.

The County Breakfast Conversations are held in partnership with Select Greater Philadelphia and sponsored by Wachovia with technology support from IMS Audio Visual.
