Quarterly Business Analysis Luncheon Set
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Kathy Deck, director of the Center for Business and Economic Research, will present her regular Quarterly Business Analysis as a luncheon event Nov. 1. Deck’s popular sessions feature business highlights of the previous quarter, key economic trends and projections and immediate and long-term issues facing the regional and state economy. Previously conducted as breakfast meetings, the August session was held at lunchtime and a much larger number of local business leaders were able to attend.
The event will be held at 11:30 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 1, at the Donald W. Reynolds Center for Enterprise Development on the University of Arkansas campus at 145 N. Buchanan, Fayetteville. The Quarterly Business Analysis luncheon is a partnership between the Center for Business and Economic Research in the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas and the Northwest Arkansas Chambers of Commerce.
"This luncheon event will provide an opportunity to discuss how Northwest Arkansas is outperforming the state and national economies and the factors that might threaten that progress. Our relative success requires continued investments in the human capital and physical infrastructure of the area,” Deck said.
The purpose of the Quarterly Business Analysis program is to build networks of leaders from business, academic and governmental sectors in the region. The goal is solid and sustainable economic development in Arkansas.
"The Quarterly Business Analysis program is designed to help our community leaders make better informed decisions," Deck said.
