On November 15th, the Honorary Consul and Immigration Attorney Dana Bucin enjoyed the enlightening conversations at the CBIA’s (Connecticut Business and Industry Association) Annual Meeting & Reception with Hartford’s Mayor-Elect Arunan Arulampalam, industry leaders such as AI Engineers, Inc. team, and business leaders focused on sustaining economic growth in Connecticut.  She took notice of the emphasis on Immigration as part of the solution to the state’s workforce challenges and discussed strategies to include international students & graduates in the workforce outreach efforts.  As the keynote speaker Alex Banayan put it, the opposite of success is not failure, but lack of trying.
