Patrick to Address Berkshire Chamber

- March 20, 2008

PITTSFIELD — Gov. Deval Patrick will address a breakfast meeting of the Berkshire Chamber of Commerce on Monday, March 31.

The event will take place at the Crowne Plaza on West Street from 7:45 to 9. The breakfast is open to the public.

Following the breakfast, Secretary for Labor and Workforce Development Suzanne Bump and Undersecretary for Business Development Gregory Bialecki will host a free panel discussion focused on the manufacturing environment in Massachusetts.

The state has chosen manufacturing as the focus in March. Launching a monthlong spotlight on the manufacturing sector, the Patrick-Murray administration has held a series of forums across the state designed to hear directly from manufacturers about ways to meet market challenges and stimulate growth and retention for this important industry sector.

The goal of the discussion is to continue to forge strong relationships with this key industry.

Patrick will also speak to several other concerns facing the Berkshire business community during his breakfast address.

The cost is $25 for Berkshire Chamber members and $32 for nonmembers and includes a buffet breakfast. Seating for the event is limited and advance registration is required. Members of the manufacturing community are also invited to attend the breakfast for a cost of $25 per person.

To register for the breakfast and/or the panel discussion, call 413-499-4000, Ext. 10, e-mail info@berkshirechamber.com or register at www.berkshirechamber.com.

The Berkshire Chamber was established to identify and serve the needs and interests of the business community creating an environment conducive to the growth and development of business in Berkshire County.
