SourceLink's Maria Meyers speaks about entrepreneurship in workforce development
Why does entrepreneurship matter?

Specifically, what role does entrepreneurship play in economic and workforce development? Our own Maria Meyers will be among the thought leaders and speakers at the North East Regional Employment and Training Association Job Creation Summit June 14-15 in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

Workforce development, higher education and economic development leaders from all over the country are joining together for two days to strategize and collaborate on how to improve the technology and entrepreneurial skills of the workforce community on a local level.

Here at SourceLink, we talk about how entrepreneurial development starts locally, as well, Maria will be speaking on the growing shift of supporting local entrepreneur infrastructure.

Dara Macan, director of global business development, will also be participating at the NERETA Job Creation Summit. Follow Maria  and Dara on Twitter for live updates throughout the conference.
