BCW to Present Major Energy Conference May 10 to Tackle New Energy Solutions

As part of its ongoing focus on advocacy and economic development, The Business Council of Westchester will present a major energy conference bringing together the industry’s biggest players along with government, private and public sector leaders for a panel discussion on how to transition into the new energy landscape.

The conference – Running on Empty? Transitioning to a New Energy Landscape – will take place from 9 am. to 12 noon on Friday, May 10, at the Crowne Plaza, located at 66 Hale Ave., White Plains. Kindly register in advance to secure your spot today.
