On Tuesday, March 10th at the Sheraton Carlsbad Resort over 450
businessmen and women, elected officials and economic experts gathered for the
2nd Annual North
County Economic Summit. The audience heard from a number of speakers and
panelists about our national, state and San Diego economies.
Prior to the meeting
KOCT’s Station Manager and I gave a tour of the KOCT
television station to Carl Morgan, the CEO, and Karen Pearson, the Director of
Investor Relations for the San Diego North
Economic Development Council (SDNEDC). We
discussed the informative value of this annual summit and the need for our
community to better understand the economic challenges and potential of north
county.
Carl and Karen convinced
two important supporters and investors with SDNEDC about the value of
recording the summit and sharing with a larger audience via local television
and the internet. KOCT sent three
production professionals with the latest hi-definition cameras to set-up and
record this one-of-a-kind event.
Thanks
to the Underwriters of the television production: Rincon Band of Luiseno Indians and Federal Heath Sign Company this
summit will air on KOCT in April as well as being made available on KOCT.ORG as Video
On Demand.
