| More than 120 business leaders, community members, and UO faculty gathered at the World Forestry Center on October 18 to examine the volatile issues surrounding healthcare that impact our economy as well as the international economic issues directly effecting Oregon business.
Expert speakers from the private sector, state government and the university presented “Healthcare Investment —Dollars In, Pennies Out?” Other panelists considered India and China’s economic influence on the Northwest in the session called “What Will Keep the U.S. Competitive?”
Sponsored by the College of Arts and Sciences and the Department of Economics, the purpose of the Oregon Economic Forum is to present relevant economic problems in an unbiased format. This was the second annual economic forum in Portland.
