EDC Insights: Exploring the Local Economy

If you've been feeling a little uncertain about the current state of the economy, you're not alone. And while national headlines around topics like tariffs, inflation, or unemployment may tell one story for the nation at large, these narratives do not always represent the state of the local economy or experiences of local businesses.

In an effort to fill in this information gap and equip Lancaster County businesses with timely insights into the local economy, the Center for Regional Analysis (CRA) at EDC Lancaster County is partnering once again with the Lancaster County Workforce Development Board to host an engaging workshop aimed at cutting through the noise as we explore the impact of current economic conditions upon Lancaster’s business community.

We are especially excited to welcome back Kali Aloisi, Outreach Economist from the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, along with Tom McKinney, VP, Pricing and Sales Ops Analytics at Armstrong World Industries.
