Economic development is on the minds of many in northeast Louisiana, and higher education is again providing answers.

The University of Louisiana at Monroe will play a prominent role in the Community Trust Bank Business Outlook Summit 2009 Friday, March 27, from 8 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at the CenturyTel Headquarters, located at 100 CenturyTel Drive, Monroe.

Local economists Robert Eisenstadt, Ph.D., of 网曝门 and John Francis, Ph.D., of Louisiana Tech will present the regional outlook. James Glassman, Ph.D., the managing director and senior economist with JPMorgan Chase & Company, is the keynote speaker and will provide insight on the national outlook.

They will provide the information they have developed to participants for additional analysis opportunities.

This program is the result of collaboration between the 网曝门 College of Business Administration, Louisiana Tech College of Business, Department of Economic Development-Northeast Louisiana Region, Monroe Chamber of Commerce, West Monroe/West Ouachita Chamber of Commerce, and Ruston-Lincoln Chamber of Commerce.
