SENIORS MEAN BUSINESS:
Tapping the Talent
Seniors Mean Business, staged in conjunction with our partner Vi at Silverstone, a gorgeous and gracious senior living community. There is an incredible wealth of talent in Scottsdale for whom golf every day and fine dining is not enough. Talented people never lose that talent, and a strong community learns how to channel those talents and energy to help businesses grow and to help make Scottsdale a better community. Demonstrating that there is a huge difference between no longer heading to the office every day and being old, today’s seniors truly mean business!
