Economic development knows no boundaries and opportunities are certainly booming in Hamilton and Burlington, Mayor Rick Goldring said ahead of next week’s Bay Area Economic Summit.

“Business doesn’t see municipal boundaries, they see markets and basically Hamilton and Burlington are in a broad economic market,” Goldring said.

“It only makes sense for us to work more closely together.”

The Royal Botanical Gardens (RBG) is playing host to the 2nd annual summit between the neighbouring municipalities next Tuesday starting at 7:45 a.m. sharp.
