We held our monthly Global Happy Hour for the global tribe this week, featuring Rachel Gruber, Manager of Regional Affairs at Denver International Airport. Rachel's work is supported by the City of Council of Denver, and we were also honored by the participation of Councilwoman Deborah Ortega (left).
This meetup intended to open doors for members to new business opportunities, new ideas and more.
In this case we learned about the progress and aggressive growth plan by Denver International Airport to achieve 100 million passengers a year.
