SURREY — The City of Surrey has moved the sixth annual Regional Economic Summit to next spring because it hasn’t yet found speakers. Usually held in the fall, this year’s summit is now set for February or March, said summit chair Coun. Linda Hepner. “We had originally been looking at Hillary Clinton, but she’s not doing government speaking roles for probably her own political (reasons),” Hepner said Tuesday. When that didn’t work out, organizers went back to the drawing board. The city is working on several other potential speakers, but isn’t ready to say publicly who they might be, Hepner said. “We’re trying to put together a pretty aggressive program and it’s going to be really exciting. I’m just not at liberty to say who that might be now.” Hepner said it’s a challenge to top previous summits after exhausting many world leaders. Past summit speakers have included former U.S. presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton, Sir Richard Branson and former British prime minister Tony Blair. see SUMMIT › page 6
