Page 4 July 3, 2014 Annual Economic Forum and Business Expo The Manhattan Beach Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the 3rd Annual Economic Forum on July 11, 2014 from 7:00am – 10:00am at the Manhattan Beach Marriott at 1400 Parkview Avenue in Manhattan Beach. New this year, a Business Expo will be featured as part of the Forum that kicks off at 7:00am with breakfast. Panel discussions and a special presentation from Bruce Moe, Finance Director at the City of Manhattan Beach will begin at 8:00am. Register early for this event, which will sell out quickly! Listen to Bruce Moe share his expertise and challenges with the economic stability in Manhattan Beach along with some information on the city’s business environment and how the different business districts make up the city. Learn how economic development can shape the future of Manhattan Beach when the community embraces a vision. The Economic Forum will be comprised of two panel sessions. Panel one will focus the economic vitality and importance of downtown districts and how they fit into the city’s structure. Panel two will focus more on the strengths and challenges that key commercial properties face while serving as a strong economic engine for the community. The panels will feature an impressive roster of leaders with knowledge of downtown districts and large commercial properties in the South Bay. The first panel will include preeminent leaders from Manhattan Beach and comparable coastal communities including Kris D’Errico, President of the Downtown Business Professional Association in Manhattan Beach; Heather Johnston, Executive Director of the Dana Point Chamber of Commerce; Carol Tantau, Former Chair of the Abbott Kinney Merchants Association; and Jim Basham, Director of Community Development for the City of Seal Beach. As Manhattan Beach begins the downtown centric planning process it is important to learn from the experiences of similar communities. Jim Basham of Seal Beach has a tremendous depth of knowledge in maintaining the small town sense of community while developing a thriving business community. Heather Johnston, of Dana Point, is currently in the process of implementing the specific plan for their community and will share the realities of what we are talking about today. Over the years Abbott Kinney has become recognized as one of the hippest streets in America, and Carol Tantau has been there through the ups and downs. The second panel will take a look at how commercial development is changing to adapt to the needs of the tenants and consumers. While Manhattan Village is reevaluating their next steps with the proposed redevelopment, Liz Griggs, General Manager at Manhattan Village with JLL, will share what is being done to prepare the current property for the immediate future. Charles Davis, SVP West Coast Development at Simon representing Del Amo Fashion Center, is in the midst of an expansive redevelopment to better position the center for the coming decade. Lora Vrastil, Regional Property Manager of Federal Realty representing El Segundo Plaza and The Point, will share her regional experience and highlight their local redevelopment as it unfolds. Keith Geiger, General Manager of South Bay Galleria with Forest City, will share their plans to improve their customer experience in an existing center as they go through a tenant remix. Sponsors of the event include Continental Development Corporation, Edward Jones, Grandpoint Bank and Manhattan Village Shopping Center. The cost to attend is $55.00 per person. You can also purchase a table of 10 for $500 or a half table of 5 for $250. There is also business expo space available at $75 for members and $150 for non-members.
