Last Updated 10/10/2025


The Regional Business Outlook, co-hosted by the NLEA and the Petoskey Regional Chamber of Commerce, will feature a panel discussion with business leaders representing diverse northern Michigan industries, sharing their outlook on both opportunities and challenges in the year ahead. Attendees will be the first to learn the current regional business climate, labor force, and development news through a presentation of the fall edition of the NLEA’s Economic Pulse Report. The panel will include Scott Philp of Landscape Logic; Juliette King-McAvoy of King Orchards; Jake Manthei of Aster Brands; and additional speakers with the NLEA’s Sam Bailey serving as moderator. The event will be hosted from 10:00 - 11:30 AM at Great Lakes Center for the Arts in Bay Harbor. Following the discussion, guests are invited to enjoy hors d’oeuvres and networking with leaders from across the region.   Regional Business Outlook | Northern Lakes Economic Alliance
