The 56th annual meeting of the Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) will be held at the Lake Placid Conference Center on Monday, October 3 from 1 to 5 p.m.
During the meeting, ANCA and some of its partners will present an overview of the “State of the Adirondack North Country: Economic and Demographic Changes Since 2000.”
The day will begin with a presentation by Jaison Abel, Senior Economist in the Research and Statistics Group of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
His presentation will focus on the current economic conditions of upstate New York as well as the economic forces that have shaped the recession and recovery to date, as well as their implications for the region’s economy.
Following Dr. Abel’s presentation, Jen McCormick, Vice President of Policy and Research and Deputy Commissioner of Business Advocacy at Empire State Development will discuss the economic and demographic characteristics and changes in the 14-county area served by ANCA.
For the remainder of the day, guests will have the opportunity to participate in a panel discussion on Economic Conditions and networking, and have a discussion with representatives of four Regional Economic Development councils.
