"I found the Southern Midcoast Maine Leadership Institute to be very useful. Beyond being very interesting and well run, the program allowed me to build a close personal network of trusted friendships within the community. I am impressed with the talent and motivation that I saw expressed by my fellow classmates. My participation in MMLI has proven time and again to have been a valuable resource as I continue to use the lessons learned throughout my efforts in leadership roles within our community, both personally and professionally."

Juice 2.0: Building Maine's Innovation Networks
November 13-14, 2009

The conference will gather entrepreneurs, artists and statewide leaders to discuss the power of creativity and innovation in transforming Maine’s economy.

How do artists transform our built environment and how are they inspired?
What is the role of engineering and material science in the repurposing of traditional buildings?
How do we honor Maine’s existing architectural pallet while responding to future performance requirements?
What financial resources are available for purchasing and renovating historic buildings?

The conference will tackle these and many more questions, while considering how to create and improve the business environment for libraries, theaters, museums, and schools as centers of creativity and community.
