2021 Economic Outlook

Each year, Calgary Economic Development’s signature event, Economic Outlook, traditionally brings together over 1,500 business, government, and community leaders to network and to hear about future economic trends and forecasts for our city, province, and nation. 

With 2020 presenting challenges in physically gathering together, we’ve reimagined how to bring this unique event to our community. We are thrilled to be hosting a virtual Economic Outlook event this fall, the first of its kind, and it promises to deliver as the not-to-be-missed business event of the year.

We invite you to join us at our fully virtual program and take in what will be a tremendously engaging session as we learn how our current economic environment will impact not only our community, but also our country.

We will welcome speakers:

• Todd Hirsch, Vice President & Chief Economist, ATB Financial
• Pierre Cléroux, Vice President, Research and Chief Economist, Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC)

Agenda

11:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. – Networking & exhibits

12:00 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. – Program

 

The global COVID-19 pandemic has put an unprecedented stress on our community and as a result, many of our local support organizations have seen an increased demand for their services. That’s why this year, Calgary Economic Development will donate all net proceeds from Economic Outlook to two charities – the Calgary Region’s Canadian Mental Health Association and the Calgary Food Bank.
