            • Marin Economic Forum Forecasting the Future

              The 2023 event will focus on economic equity in Marin County. One of the lasting impacts of the COVID pandemic was the awareness of the challenges within the county to achieve equity among residents, specifically economic equity. Many of our residents lack the opportunities to create economic security and mobility. Currently, the county, along with Marin's many jurisdictions and non-profit organizations, are working to address the issue of equity, thus Forecasting the Future is the perfect event to showcase that work and bring community leaders together to collaborate. 

              The program will feature presentations on the issue of economic equity from leading local organizations that are tracking and delivering services within this subject. The County of Marin will share details on its Racial Equity Action Plan. The keynote presentation will be from Abbie Langston, Director of Economic Equity for PolicyLink, who will discuss the importance of data and share data from the "Bay Area Equity Atlas" project.

              Forecasting the Future will also include a presentation on the upcoming challenges and opportunities in the economy as delivered by MEF's Chief Economist, Dr. Rob Eyler. Dr. Eyler, a notable expert on the North Bay economy, will discuss key national and state level policies and proposals that are likely to have an impact on businesses and employees in Marin in 2023 and beyond.
