The last <br />meeting was held in March of 2008 and Matt Entenza was the speaker. Due to the discussion of <br />a Spring Business Expo it would seem that moving this event to the Fall of the year would be <br />good planning. <br />Last year the EDA was very interested in having Governor Pawlenty come to give a presentation <br />to the businesses in Ramsey. Obtaining a speaker of Pawlenty' s nature might be easier due to <br />the fact that the Legislature isn't as busy then. Staff is looking for ideas of other speakers to <br />pursue if the Governor is not an option. Staff would also suggest that the format remain the <br />same and that food be provided for attendees. <br />to be speaker at the 2009 Business Network Meeting. <br />to be speaker at the 2009 Business Network <br />21 <br />
