University of Arkansas Center for Business & Economic Research to Present Quarterly Business Analysis Luncheon

Mervin Jebaraj, director of the Center for Business and Economic Research at the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas, will present a Quarterly Business Analysis on Thursday, May 24, 2018.

The event is scheduled from 11:30 a.m. -1:00 p.m. at the Hilton Garden Inn Fayetteville, 1325 North Palak Dr. Networking and registration will begin at 11:00 am.

"The program will take a look at new economic data, tax cuts, tariffs, interest rate adjustments and other factors and at their effect on short-term and long-term growth for the nation, Arkansas and the region," Jebaraj said. "Even in a growing economy, changes in policy and a daily flow of new information can shift the economic outlook." The program also will take a deep dive into what kind of pressure Northwest Arkansas' growing population is putting on affordable housing in the region.

Registration will begin at 11:00 a.m. Attendees will be able to network with other Northwest Arkansas community leaders before the program begins at 11:30 a.m. The program lasts for approximately 90 minutes, including time for questions and answers. The cost of the luncheon program is $40. For additional information, visit the Quarterly Business Analysis website.
