Highland Park Mayor Gayle Brill Mittler

The Middlesex County Regional Chamber of Commerce (MCRCC) will continue its new economic development series designed to connect the region's business community with legislators and county resources.

The fourth and final session in the four-part series will feature Assemblywoman Nancy Pinkin, Middlesex County Freeholders Leslie Koppel and Shanti Narra, and Highland Park Mayor Gayle Brill Mittler and will take place Thursday, April 26, 8 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., at the Colonia Country Club, 300 Colonia Blvd, Colonia, NJ

The event, which will focus on on the theme "Women in Government," will be moderated by Bert Baron of WCTC 1450-AM. 

The series, Make It & Move It Middlesex, was built on the momentum gained in the September 2017 Middlesex County Business Summit, where attendees were able to navigate the many business resources provided by Middlesex County.

"At its core, the Middlesex County Regional Chamber of Commerce serves as a conduit to local, county, and statewide resources to make sure our Central Jersey business community thrives," said Lina Llona, President, MCRCC & Convention and Visitors Bureau.
