Economic Forums

Our quarterly events bring together JEC members with leading local business people and experts as well as providing dynamic, finance-focused discussions.  The forums also foster meaningful connections among like-minded peers and with established professionals — providing a jumping-off point and a foundation for the future. Each event features distinct keynote speakers in fields of economics, entrepreneurship, business, and finance and includes a networking session. The JEC is always forging partnerships to give its members new and exciting opportunities.

International Fall Forum

The Junior Economic Club was honored to host its first international forum gathering members from its nine chapters across four countries on September 26th, 2020.

Forum attendees were also able to participate in either a financial forecast activity or networking and discussions with fellow attendees.
