Earlier this week, Joseph Greenwald & Laake proudly sponsored the annual State of the Economy address for Prince George’s County held at the new University of Maryland Hotel in College Park, Maryland. The 2018 State of the Economy Breakfast, hosted by the Prince George’s County Economic Development Corporation (PGCEDC), was attended by several JGL partners, JGL attorney Brenda Adimora and senior paralegal Jamerra Cherry. The breakfast featured keynote speaker and County Executive, Rushern L. Baker III, who delivered his reflections and predictions for the 2018 legislative session. This was the Executive’s final address, which touched on some economic development initiatives including an expansion of the county’s EDI Fund, geographic development incentives and an expansion of transit-oriented development.
The PGCEDC is committed to providing businesses the tools they need to succeed. With programs such as their small business incubator program, international business seminars and business forums, they aim to attract and expand business development in Prince George’s County and Maryland as a whole.
