NOVEMBER 2001 ROUNDTABLE LUNCHEON

Wally W. Altes, President of the Albany-Colonie Chamber of Commerce, will be the speaker at the November 14, 200l Roundtable Luncheon.

Since Mr. Altes assumed the presidency of the Chamber in 1990, its membership has grown by 70%.  The Chamber is now among the top 30 in the nation in terms of membership and budget.  But these are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to his positive impact upon Albany and the region.  At this time when he is about to retire, we have invited him to look back as well as share his outlook on the future for initiatives like Tech Valley that he was instrumental in creating.

This Luncheon is being sponsored by VERIZON.

Reservations for the Luncheon are open to the public by reservation.  Reservation are required by November 12th and can be made by calling 431-1440 (the reservation number of the Albany-Colonie Regional Chamber of Commerce)or by e-mail to <albanyroundtable@aol.com>.  The cost of the Luncheon is $10.

The Luncheon begins at 12:30 PM and is held in the third floor former courtroom of the Old Federal Bldg., now part of SUNY Plaza at the foot of State Street.
