About this event

On behalf of the City of Stockbridge, for those of you who I have not had the chance to meet, I would like to introduce myself as the Economic Development Director for the City. My name is James Touchton and I have served for over one year in this capacity. As our City continues to grow to almost 35,000 people next year, it is important that we continue to work to advance the business climate of the City and encourage new and existing business to continue their investment in Stockbridge. As we continue to grow and add economic development incentives to enhance the City and our downtown, which will soon feature a new 3500 seat state of the art amphitheater, we will need the help of the existing business community to help further these efforts.

On February 26th, 2020 from 7:30am – 9:30am at the Merle Manders Conference Center, the City of Stockbridge will host a free breakfast that will feature noted economist and professor, Dr. Roger Tutterow for a “ 2020 Economic Forecast”, which will provide his economic outlook for the coming year. Dr. Tutterow is Professor of Economics at Kennesaw State University where he holds the Henssler Financial Endowed Chair. In addition, he serves as Director of the Econometric Center, an applied research center housed in KSU’s Coles College of Business. In addition to his work in academia, Dr. Tutterow has served as a consultant on financial economics and statistical modeling for corporate clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies to closely held businesses. He has provided expert testimony on economic, financial and statistical matters in state and federal court, before the Georgia General Assembly and before the Georgia Public Service Commission. Dr. Tutterow has given several hundred speeches to professional groups in 40 states and Canada on topics in the economic, business and political arenas. (Please see biographical insert)

This will be a great opportunity as you prepare for your upcoming year to hear from an expert in economics and to network with your fellow members of the Stockbridge community, elected officials, city staff and many others. In addition, the Mayor, City Manager, Economic Development Director and others will provide remarks on the exciting developments occurring in our great City. We would also like to hear from you, the business owners and investors in the community on how we can continue to ensure you receive the top quality service you have come to expect from the City.

I would like to invite you, the business owner, property owner or your top manager to attend this breakfast. Attendance will be limited to 200 and registration will be required to attend.
