Message from the Faculty Director
Dear Colleagues,
At this time of year we find ourselves looking both backward and forward. Backward, reflecting on the summer season and the market forces that have made recent years challenging for the gaming, hospitality and tourism industries. And forward toward a new year and the many opportunities to shape the future of Atlantic City and destinations through the region.
In this issue we will hear from diverse members of the LIGHT community on topics ranging from Tomatoes and Cannabis to a "New Normal" in tourism. We hope these articles, and the articles available in the , will serve as an inspiration and resource for you and your team.
The Lloyd D. Levenson Institute of Gaming, Hospitality & Tourism (LIGHT), as part of the School of Business at 91视频, supports the local community by providing the most recent, accurate and relevant data available on issues affecting the gaming, hospitality and tourism industries. LIGHT identifies emerging trends and connects industry leaders with knowledge to guide their decision making.
LIGHT鈥檚 experts, drawn from a broad range of disciplines, focus their skills on issues impacting industry stakeholders in the Atlantic County region and throughout the state of New Jersey. They examine the impacts of changing market dynamics and advise on best practices to meet new and unprecedented challenges.
LIGHT鈥檚 signature events, such as the Fifth Annual Jersey Shoreview, on Oct. 3, 2024, underscore the institute鈥檚 commitment to providing opportunities for members of the public to actively participate in conversations about issues currently affecting their livelihoods.
Thank you again for your continuing support. We look forward to bringing you the same great programing in 2024 along with some new and exciting surprises.
Sincerely,
Jane Bokunewicz
Faculty Director, LIGHT
