(AEDC) 2024 Economic Forecast Luncheon

Keynote Speaker – Patience Fairbrother, will draw from DCI’s extensive research to share insights on national relocation trends; the “path to purchase” for individuals considering a new location or job opportunity; the role of tourism in talent attraction; the highly subjective concept of “quality of life” and what it means to talent; and the future of remote work. Jenna Wright, AEDC’s President & CEO, will present the Annual Economic Report for Anchorage and the findings of numerous on-going research projects on consumer confidence, jobs, and other topics. AEDC luncheons are the largest sit-down business events in Alaska. A perennial sell-out, the Economic Forecast Luncheon is attended by over 1,500 industry leaders, C-suite executives, senior staff, business owners, independent contractors and young professionals.
