Breakfast to feature
economic growth projections
The public is invited to join
Dr. Robert Eyler as he presents the Solano
County 2015 Index of Economic and
Community Progress to business and community leaders, Thursday, March 31 at
the Solano Economic Development Corporation’s monthly breakfast event at the
Hilton Garden Inn in Fairfield, starting at 7:30 a.m.
“The Index tells an impressive
story of Solano County and where we are as we emerge from the recession,” said
Sandy Person, Solano EDC president. “Dr.
Eyler will share his expert insights about 2015 and what 2016 holds for our
economic future.”
The Index provides detailed
analysis of the changes in the local economy and community factors that affect
Solano County’s ability to attract and retain employers. This year’s report
evaluates many of the indicators at the city level and draws comparisons to the
neighboring regions that influence the local economy.
Highlights of the Index were
presented to the Solano County Board of Supervisors early this month. Dr. Eyler, a principal member of Economic
Forensics and Analytics, will provide a more comprehensive view of the county’s
economic future in his presentation at the Solano Economic Development
Corporation (EDC) breakfast.
“Tracking economic data
through the annual Index provides Solano County a tremendous tool that private
sector and government organizations can use to pinpoint areas of opportunities,
as well as spotlight challenges that can be foreseen,” Person says.
The event is sponsored by
NorthBay Healthcare, Travis Credit Union and the Valero Benicia Refinery.
To register please contact
707-864-1855, or e-mail: pat@solanoedc.org. Cost is $27 for EDC members and $37 for
non-members.
