“This is one of the most important Leadership Dinners we have ever hosted,” said Julie Coons, TCM Chief Executive Officer. “Our members will be able to hear first-hand from the state’s chief executive. Governor O’Malley is a dynamic and engaging speaker and our members are anxious to hear from him.”

Governor O’Malley is expected to speak about a host of compelling state issues including the state-of-the-state, economic priorities for technology, biotechnology and the state’s business climate moving forward. In addition, he is expected to talk about his administration’s accomplishments and give a “from the top” forecast of the current legislative session.

The TCM Leadership Dinner is a members-only event held annually that allows the most senior executives from the association’s member companies access to Maryland’s legislative leaders. In addition to Governor O’Malley’s speech, attendees will also be given a formal presentation on TCM’s 2008 policy priorities.
