BCW ANNUAL DINNER HONORS CEO MARSHA GORDON

By Grant Schneider

Education & Training with Performance Development Strategies

October 13, 2021 05:12 AM

We had a very memorable night last night. The Business Council of Westchester held its annual dinner at the VIP Country Club in New Rochelle. This is the first annual dinner since Covid and it was very well attended in a more spaced out environment.

In the photo above CEO Marsha Gordon was honored for years. She took over just after 9/11 and built the County Chamber of Commerce into the Business Council powerhouse it is today. And 250 new members have joined just since Covid started. It is Westchester County's largest organization of business, economic development, and advocacy.

The featured speakers and honorees were Leonard Schleifer and George Yancopoulos, co founders of Regeneron. Everyone knows the breakthrough therapeutics the the scientists at the company have developed. We are proud to have them in Westchester County and the are embarking on an additional 1.6 billion dollar expansion program. Westchester is thriving.

Regeneron

Grant how awesome the recognition and the event... ironically after being locked down for 19 months I would have felt a bit uncomfortable to be so close to so many people.... but that is just because Los Angeles politicians have gotten us to this point...Endre
