2023 Economic Outlook

Speaker: Richard Wobbekind

What does the economic forecast look like heading into 2023?

At the national & state level? For Colorado's construction industry?

WE’RE BACK! For the first in person post pandemic lunch topic, we wanted to bring Professor Wobbekind back to talk to the Association about his upcoming economic forecast. As Faculty Director of the Business Research Division at CU, his responsibilities include developing an annual consensus forecast of the Colorado economy and performing various economic impact assessments of the Colorado economy.

If you are curious about the current and upcoming economic and business environment, then don’t miss out on this chance to gain valuable insight into Colorado's Economy as well as forecasted industry-specific indicators and impacts.

We are fortunate to bring back one of our most popular speakers – Richard L Wobbekind. Wobbekind has lived in Colorado for more than 44 years and has spent much of his time studying the development of the Colorado and regional economies. He can easily be called one of the region's top economic forecasters and is well known for being able to look into the past to create an economic forecast for the upcoming year.

So, come listen to an expert discuss the current state of affairs rather than try to predict yourself the impact of the past few years. Will the post pandemic workplace shifts and exhaustion have lasting impacts on how we run our businesses? Will the rising interest rates, employment figures, inflation, and more have a lasting impact on business performance? We’ve seen unprecedented success for over 10-years. Let’s all come together and hear what we might face in the next 10-years…be sure to set the time aside to attend and find out the impact on business revenue.

You WILL NOT want to miss this low-cost opportunity to gain valuable knowledge for you and your business to make sound economic decisions for the coming year and beyond.
