workshop  with a select group of the foremost thinkers and
practitioners on  economic and community development to:

   1. Discover the trends, organizations, and innovations that are
      creating vital new resources, and a new breed of highly
      profitable projects;
   2. Learn how to leverage your Brownfields resources to make the
      transition to Integrated Restoration;
   3. Prepare your staff and organization for the multidisciplinary
      approaches that will create profitable synergies among all eight
      sectors of restorative development.

If you want to ensure that your company or agency can respond to the
latest Brownfields trends and developments, then you and your staff
should attend. This is a unique opportunity to interact with a dynamic
group of public and private sector leaders and help shape the future
direction of Brownfields redevelopment.
