As you will note from this agenda, the meeting will include an informal discussion of current fund-related sales and marketing issues. If you have any issues or questions you would like discussed during this session, please list those items on the attached form or email them to Brenner@ici.org. I will circulate a list of items submitted in advance of the meeting to all meeting registrants—our experience indicates that if topics are circulated in advance, the value of the discussion is considerably enhanced. A block of rooms has been reserved for meeting attendees at the Langham Hotel, which is located at 250 Franklin Street in Boston, MA (approximately 2.5 miles from Logan International Airport and 1.25 miles from John Hancock’s offices).
