Join Vermont Public and Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility (VBSR) for networking, food, drinks, and a panel discussion about Fortifying the Future of Vermont’s Downtowns, hosted by Vermont Public statehouse reporter Peter Hirschfeld.

Our panel will discuss the importance of investing in Vermont downtowns and how we can ensure resilience among the changing environmental and economic climate.

The panel includes:
Caroline Corrente (she/her) | Chef-Owner, Haymaker Bun Company
Kesha Ram Hinsdale (she/her) | Vermont State Senate
Sue Minter (she/her) | Executive Director, Capstone Community Action, Inc.
Katie Trautz (she/her) | Executive Director, Montpelier Alive

Join us for networking at 5:00 PM, followed by our panel discussion from 5:30 – 6:30 PM and a reception from 6:30 – 8:00 PM at our studio in Colchester. We will reflect on what we’ve learned, meet the panelists, and enjoy a cash-only bar and free finger foods by Sugarsnap Catering.

This event is a part of the VBSR People.Planet.Prosperity. Speaker Series, where they come together to learn from experts and innovators in the Vermont business community. This is a great opportunity to catch up with colleagues, make new connections, gain new ideas and inspiration, and have some fun. This event is open to all.
