On Wednesday, December 18th, FountainHead RI hosted its 5th Annual Business Leaders Networking Year-End Event at the iconic Dorrance in downtown Providence, Rhode Island, an evening that was truly unforgettable. The continued strong turnout is a testament to the growing reach of the FountainHead RI community and the eclectic individuals who have taken active roles towards promoting the ultimate mission that the Organization was founded upon. Every sector of the business community was represented as generations converged to discuss the economy (local, national and international), innovation and disruption, financial literacy, and the future of Rhode Island.
Guy Meir, who represented SQream technologies and traveled from Israel to attend the event provided glowing praise around the overall uniqueness and welcome reception he felt from the Rhode Island community.
