Entertainment Industry in SWLA

George Swift, director of the SWLA Partnership for Economic Development, hosted a meeting today with Mark Smith, the Entertainment Industry Director for the state's Economic Development group. Mark met with interested local residents to discuss building the entertainment industry in southwest Lousisiana.

Topics discussed included available tax incentives as well as programs being created in other Louisiana communities.

Among the attendees were the LAFG's own Patrick Roddy, Ken Henderson and Jack Woodson.

A followup meeting has been scheduled for later this month.
