Sandbox IdeaLaunch Leaders meeting Thursday 8:00 AM

[David Parker]

Every other week seems to work for us in the summer.  Theresa’s going to lead us off with a discussion on celebrity-sighting in downtown Lowell.

 

Major topics this week:

 

-          I-6 Application:  Raj, Steve, Tom, and I have been putting lots of time into this, so we’ll share how everything’s going.  Note:  I have not received partner support letters from a number of the organizations represented on the leadership team – you know who  you are!  Please email them to me, signed and on letterhead (ie you have to scan them).  Thanks!

-          July 25^th event: Panel discussion on “starting a business on a shoestring.”   Final logistics, who’s speaking, who’s invited.

-          Looking Forward:  Raj and I have put our heads together on a rough program schedule for the next 12 months.  We’ll share it and solicit feedback/suggestions.

-          Real Estate:  Tom was in Philadelphia this week attending an Economic Development Agency meeting – he’ll share what he learned, and our thinking on space given the I-6 proposal.

 

Let me know if you have any other topics to discuss.

 

See you Thursday!

Hello All,

I will be at the Sandbox Leadership Recruitment breakfast tomorrow morning at Enterprise Bank, so I will not be able to attend our regular meeting.
