Their experience, skill sets, passion and aptitude will help us to translate a lot of the incredible ideas coming out of the focus groups into implementable business plans.
“We have a lot of work ahead of us. Jereme, Sean, and I, along with the rest of the team and Board of the BDA are all focussed on deploying our resources to make sure we try to stimulate our economy so that companies can keep jobs in Bermuda and create more opportunities for Bermudians.”
