Jon Hilsenrath, The Wall Street Journal chief economic correspondent, will moderate panel discussions. David Lyons along with Joe Valerio, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Lyons Companies, will host the event.
The Economic Forecast will be held Tuesday, February 3, 2015 from 8:30-11:30 am in Clayton Hall on the campus of the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware.
“Each year our distinguished panel of experts tackles head on the current economic conditions, trends and policy implications,” Lyons commented.
The event is part of LyonsEDU, a comprehensive client education portal. “We launched the Economic Forecast in 2006 to better inform Lyons Companies employees about the effect economic conditions have on client businesses and the insurance industry. We’ve expanded to the point where the Economic Forecast is now a premier regional business event in the state of Delaware and surrounding business communities – thanks to the support and leadership of the University of Delaware’s Center for Economic Education and Entrepreneurship,” Lyons added.
The Lyons Economic Forecast event attracts national media attention and has been used as a forum to make important policy announcements. “Most important, Lyons clients along with students and area businesspeople have the opportunity to directly ask economic and investment leaders about the economic outlook and its impact for Delaware and the region,” Lyons concluded.
