Without a doubt, some adaptations arising from the pandemic will “stick” and become part of a new normal. What started as a band-aid now feels…essential? Where can we be smarter – and more efficient – than before? Panelists will walk through changes for the better that may stay in Maryland, and elsewhere, as we head toward a new normal. Plus…bring your own ideas and suggestions to discuss as part of a post-panel discussion.

Speakers:

  • Nicholas T.R. Blendy, Esq., Deputy Executive Secretary, Baltimore City Liquor License Board
  • Roberta Windham, County Administrator, Carroll County
  • Amanda Newman, Senior Project Manager, Economic Opportunities Program, Aspen Institute

Date/Time: Thursday, August 19, 2021; 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
