NEW ORLEANS – Tomorrow, Tuesday, March 21, The Civic Innovation Summit, as part of New Orleans Entrepreneur Week, will provide the opportunity to continue conversations around the future of New Orleans in the lead up to the City's Tricentennial in 2018. This event will call specifically on the private sector to add perspective and partner with the public sector to address risks to the future of New Orleans.
The event, at the Library at the Ogden Museum, from 2:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m., will feature opening remarks by Mayor Landrieu followed by three short panels with local leaders in the public, private, and philanthropic sectors on each of three risk areas – resilience, equity, and violence reduction.
