The Mihaylo College of Business and Economics puts out economic forecasts a couple of times a year and it is almost that time for another one to be presented. On Tuesday, April 20 the next iteration of this forecast will be presented by Dr. Anil Puri (Dean of the Mihaylo College of Business and Economics) and Dr. Mira Farka.
So, what should you expect from this forecast? Frankly, just about everything you could think of. Just take a look at the last Economic Forecast they published.
Real estate, credit, unemployment and GDP forecasts will all be covered with a special focus on Orange County and Southern California. Both of these researchers are highly respected within their fields and it is highly unlikely their presentation will disappoint.
While the editor’s of this site are busy creating our own study on Orange County the Harvard Business Association of Orange County is unveiling its annual report card for Orange County Thursday, March 15. Here’s a preview:
The Report shows how our county is changing and how it compares with other local regions in terms of economy, education, health, safety, environment and civic life.
The 2010 report provides valuable insights during these uncertain economic times. The relative strengths and weaknesses of our region compared to our peers is showcased and will continue to guide efforts to maintain and improve the quality of life in Orange County and indicates how the long-term attributes of a strong regional economy is an even more important measure of financial health.
It sounds like a great event; that’s why a couple of us are going. Hope to see you there.
On March 18, 2010, the Harvard Business School Association of Orange County will be hosting a breakfast with Mike Ruane. Mr. Ruane is an adjunct lecturer at UC Irvine and will be discussing the Annual Report Card of the Orange County Economy.
The report will provide insight into the strengths and weaknesses of Orange County compared to other regions. It will also serve as a guide to improve the quality of life in our county.
I look forward to attending this event and I’ll post a synopsis on the annual report upon my return.
