 Letter to the Membership Minimize

August, 2008

Dear Gateway Group member,

For over 20 years, The Gateway Group has provided professional networking and education programs to healthcare professionals in the Greater Boston area.  Our speakers have included quite a number of regional health care luminaries over the years, and we have been proud and honored that they willingly shared their time and expertise with us.

After a great deal of reflection, The Gateway Group Board announces the end of the monthly Gateway Group programs.  This decision arises from widely variable attendance levels, despite the high caliber of speakers on the program.

Thank you for attending The Gateway Group in recent years.  The Gateway Board wishes you great success in the future. We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Nutter, McClennen & Fish for graciously hosting The Gateway Group meetings since 1996.

Best wishes,

Jeffrey Zegas, President
Patrice Clifford, Vice President, Treasurer
Gary Janko, Board Member
Joe Bruno, Board Member
Linda Burns, Board Member
George Ferencik, Board Member

The Gateway Group

The Gateway Group was a not-for-profit organization of New England health care executives who, for over 20 years, met monthly over a buffet dinner for networking and to keep current on developments in health care. These meetings featured prominent senior executive healthcare leaders from around the New England area.

The Gateway Group discontinued its meetings after the 2007-2008 season.

History

The Gateway Group was founded in the late 1980s by several Boston area senior hospital executives as a monthly get-together with both a social and professional agenda. Shortly after it began, each meeting featured a speaker with authority in some area of health care. As membership grew, members' homes became an inadequate setting for meetings, and in the early 1990s the group began holding meetings at The Gateway Center in Newton, MA, inspiring the group’s name.

Continued growth and change in leadership led the group to require a larger and more centrally located meeting site. Since the mid 1990s the law offices on Nutter, McClennen & Fish was kind enough to host Gateway Group meeting at One International Place in Boston. In 1998 The Gateway Group became registered as a not-for-profit corporation in Massachusetts.
