Business owners, CEOs and other senior executives are invited to gain insights about the state of Houston’s regional business economy

HOUSTON, TX – October 11, 2016 – Chief Outsiders CEO Art Saxby will join forces with ITR Economics Senior Analyst Alex Chausovsky to facilitate Econoquest ’17 – Houston’s premier business planning and economic forecasting summit. The event will be held from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. October 28, 2016 at the Houston Marriott Westchase.

This event is designed for business owners, CEOs and other senior executives, as well as private equity investors, who want to know what to expect of business conditions in the Houston regional economy for 2017, what business sectors will be leading or trailing, and how to develop strategies to optimize for profitable revenue growth in the coming year.

“Houston’s executives want to understand what the overall health and vibrancy of the Houston, US and global economies will be going forward, and how they can achieve profitability and make critical strategic decisions to grow in the face of economic volatility,” said Saxby. “It is our expectation that attendees of Econoquest ’17 will come away with actionable strategies that they can employ to be successful in 2017 and beyond.”

“We hope to provide a means by which CEOs can connect the dots between key macroeconomic measures and their decision-making process,” added ITR’s Chausovsky. “Oil prices, the local housing market, industry and consumer trends, business to business activity, interest rates, inflation, exchange rates, and emerging economies can all have an impact on factors such as resource allocation, inventory management, capital investment, hiring and borrowing activity.”

Tickets are $49 if purchased before Oct. 15, and $99 thereafter, and may be purchased by visiting www.EconoQuest17.com. 

Econoquest ’17 is made possible through the support of Platinum (Host) Sponsor Vistage; Gold Sponsors pePartners, Forthea Interactive Marketing, Integrity Insurance Solutions, Revenade, Texas Business Radio, Expense Reduction Analysts, Oasis Outsourcing and Crestmark; and Silver Sponsors B2B CFO, Doeren Mayhew, and the Rodin Consulting Group.
