2009 Northeast Regional Meeting
August 6-8, 2009 ~ Halifax, Nova Scotia
On August 6-8, Nova Scotia member firm Wickwire Holm will sponsor State Capital Group's 2009 Northeast Regional Meeting in Halifax, the capital city of Nova Scotia. Halifax is a modern and commercial, yet historic city. It is a government and financial center filled with universities, international research, professional schools, film and jazz festivals, music and art, theatre, and long-time involvement in international trade. Central to Halifax is Citadel Hill, a massive fortification built to guard the entrance to Halifax Harbour, the world's second largest natural harbour.
The regional meeting program will focus on energy issues. Atlantic Canada has or has in development hydroelectric, nuclear, wind, tidal power and LNG projects, as well as oil and gas production and exploration. Target markets for Atlantic Energy include the US Northeast delivered via existing or expanded transmission facilities. Attend the regional meeting to hear more about the possibilities and opportunities!
Of course, the regional meeting will feature dutch-treat dinners and a Lobster Fest with down east entertainment! (Halifax has more bars per capita than any city in Canada.)
All meeting sessions will be held at the Halifax Marriott Harbourfront Hotel, located on the Halifax waterfront.
