The Future Economy: Growth Opportunities

Pandemic-related realities and the fallout from the Russia-Ukraine war continue to impact the U.S. and global economy, while complexities with China add new risks. Combined with the energy revolution, shifting demographics, and challenges with the USMCA and Europe, these issues aThe world is going to see more economic change in the next 5 years than we have seen in the last 100 years. Just as the US was getting over the worst of COVID, Russia invaded and China shut down ports due to COVID. Inflation exploded and markets crashed. The war in Ukraine is a great example of the speed of change and the disruption that can happen to the global economy. As well, foundational AI, blockchain, and co-bots are just a few of the extraordinary tools being leveraged right now to help businesses overcome, adapt and thrive. .

 

Are you aligning yourself for what will occur? Andy literally wrote the book on large, catastrophic events and how they impact our markets, economy, and world. As a futurist and economist, Andy dives deep into exploring how innovation, policy changes, and societal shifts (war) drive opportunities for clients. He provides context by doing a “where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re going” for the economy. He takes the trends supercharged by COVID & war, then applies them to your industry via a case study to show where money is flowing. Are you thinking about how to adapt to the disruptions to run your business better or how you can grow it faster? How are you challenging yourself with new ideas, new concepts, and new technology? Can you understand the economic and inflationary forces driving change to lead you in transforming your business and adapting your strategy to take control of the future?         

Andy says, “Let’s explore the economic future by getting you the tools you need to be successful.”
