Mark Henneman recently gave a fantastic presentation at our weekly meeting.  The presentation provided a case study informing how a regional economy can create an opportunity rich landscape for investors.  With the state of Minnesota as the example,  Mark delved into how a regional business culture with a self-reinforcing robust business climate evolved over time and what the drivers were for that development.  He also examined the importance of diversity across sectors, as well as the impacts of cross fertilization of ideas and talents.
