ITR Economics will have two presenters at the upcoming Industry and Economic Outlook Conference (IEOC) in August. Alan Beaulieu, who has been presenting at NFPA conferences for over 15 years, will be leading off the conference on Tuesday morning with a presentation on U.S. & Global Macro Trends and Impacts. Alan’s unique blend of knowledge and humor helps us best explore the future of the U.S. and global economy, and the trends we all should be keeping an eye on for our businesses.
