KEYNOTE ADDRESS: ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT THROUGH WALKABILITY with JEFF SPECK, CITY PLANNER AND AUTHOR

SPONSORED BY: ORACLE
In partnership with the New Hampshire Institute of Art, we are excited to welcome Jeff Speck as our keynote speaker at this year’s EDI Summit. How can “walkability” enhance a city’s quality of life and promote economic development? Walkability expert, influential city planner, and best-selling author Jeff Speck will explore this topic and highlight some of the opportunities Manchester can pursue to drive economic development through creating a more walkable and connected community. With the continued growth of the Millyard, downtown housing and entertainment options, and the importance of attracting and retaining young professionals and families to Manchester, Speck’s presentation is perfectly timed as Manchester considers its vision for the future.
