CEO/President, Phil Purcell, served as the moderator at the Greater Fort Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce Downtown Council Breakfast, co-hosted by the Marine Advisory Council. At the Tower Club, Phil opened the breakfast event with a brief introduction about the marine industry and the issues that we are currently facing. Attendees were very engaged, and it served as a great platform to share with a different audience about the marine industry and its impact on our community.


After introductions were made, Tim Petrillo, The Restaurant People, Romney Rogers, RMZ Law, and David Dweck, Miami Association of Realtors, took the stage to begin the panel discussion. Each panelist was able to share their thoughts, experiences, and perspectives about the marine industry, how one can get involved in it, and why someone should want to get involved.
