Island Economics

Wondering how Island businesses fared this summer and what can be gleaned from these results to help prepare for next season?

Nancy Gardella, executive director of the Martha’s Vineyard Chamber of Commerce, will speak to this subject on Tuesday, Nov. 9 at a breakfast program organized by the Martha’s Vineyard Women’s Network.

Ms. Gardella’s talk is entitled Business Forecasting, Trends, and Opportunities and will offer a bird’s eye view of the 2010 Vineyard economy and what to look out for in the 2011 season.

Registration for the program begins at 7:30 a.m. and the talk starts at 8 a.m. in the Baylies Room of the Old Whaling Church in Edgartown. A light breakfast will be served.
