2006 Economic Development Forum Packs a Crowd


Location Georgia hosted its fifth economic development conference on March 29-31, 2006 and attendance was record setting. With over 150 Mayors, City Council members, City Mangers, Local/State ED Professionals and Utility Leaders, it is ECG's second largest attended function.

"The Economic Development Conference held at Lake Oconee at the Ritz-Carlton Lodge was probably one of the most interesting and well prepared that I have ever attended. The speakers were outstanding."
-Lem Edwards, General Manager, Albany Water, Gas and Light Commission

Among many noted industry experts and top consultants, the conference attendees heard state news from Georgia Economic Development Commissioner Craig Lesser and Nancy Cobb, Director of the OneGeorgia Authority.
