Designed specifically for the business community, this series of luncheon speakers is co-hosted with The Gate Governors Club and held at The River Club, Jacksonville's premier dining facility. These luncheons offer invaluable insight into international political, economic, business and financial trends — information that is important to First Coast businesses as they make both short- and long-term development, staffing and investment decisions. This enduring series continues to strengthen our understanding of an increasingly complex, connected and competitive business world.
