Gov. Patrick schedules economic summit

BOSTON (AP) - A month late, Gov. Deval Patrick has scheduled his economic summit.

A meeting between state, business and federal officials will occur on Oct. 27 at the Federal Reserve Bank in Boston. Patrick announced the summit in August and originally said it would be held in late September or early October.

The day-long summit will focus on ways to promote long-term economic recovery and job growth throughout the state.

Patrick said in a statement Wednesday the meeting will include representatives from every corner of the state "to make the most of our recovery and assure that no one is left behind."
