Event Description:Start 2026 with the insight every business leader needs. Our first Catalyst Brief of the year brings Betsy McGriff, one of Georgia Tech’s leading researchers, for a fast-paced, data-rich look at the forces shaping our local economy right now.
This highly engaging session will spotlight:
✨ Who’s moving in and how our community is changing – updated population projections, income trends, and shifting age brackets
🏡 What’s happening in housing – affordability, supply pressures, and what it means for workforce stability
🚗 How our workforce moves – updated commute patterns and their impact on employers
📈 Where growth is accelerating – job trends by industry sector and emerging opportunities
💵 How wages are evolving – current wage trends and key economic indicators every organization should be watching
Betsy will break down the data into clear, actionable insights that help local businesses, community partners, and leaders understand where we are and where we’re headed. We’ll wrap up with an interactive Q&A, giving you the chance to dig into the trends that matter most to your operations.
