Bresciani, a national leader in higher education with over 35 years-experience is a welcomed addition to this year’s Greater Palm Springs Economic Summit. President Bresciani’s topic, “Transforming seasonal economies with higher education and state of the art bandwidth” is most relevant in today’s expanding Coachella Valley economy.
