Finance and Commerce Features Walsh Bishop
Minneapolis-based Finance and Commerce magazine currently features an article about Walsh Bishop’s expertise and work in the casino and gaming industry. Keith O’Brien, the Vice President of our Entertainment and Hospitality division, speaks about the hope for continued growth in casino projects. As he stated in the article, Keith expects the $26 billion industry to grow 4 to 5 percent nationally in 2009, which is down somewhat from the double-digit growth of recent years, but still strong considering the current economy. The article also summarizes our project history in the gaming industry.
