The State of Durham's Economy 2011

It’s not too late for those interested in an update on Durham’s economic performance to purchase tickets to attend the presentation-only portion of the 2011 State of Durham’s Economy Breakfast.

This annual event shares news about the progress made in 2010 to strengthen Durham’s economic performance amidst the economic downturn. Issues such as employment, tax-base growth, high-growth industry activity, retail sales, commercial real estate markets, and wages will be discussed.

This year’s event will also feature a panel discussion with representatives from companies and organizations who will share their perspectives on Durham’s global marketplace and how businesses, students, and residents can prepare themselves to be globally competitive in 2011 and beyond.

To register for the presentation-only portion of the event beginning Tuesday, March 15, visit http://www.stateofdurhameconomy.org/. Presentation-only online registration will close Friday, March 25.

On-site ticket purchases for the presentation-only portion of the event will also be available in the lobby of the Durham Performing Arts Center on March 29 beginning at 7:45 a.m. at $25 per ticket. Checks will be the only method of payment accepted for on-site, presentation-only ticket purchases.
