34th BABC Economic Forecast Luncheon 

February 6 @ 11:30 am - 2:00 pm

The British-American Business Council Northern California cordially invites you to the 34th Annual BABC Economic Forecast Luncheon, presented by HSBC.

Discussion is growing in board rooms around the world about the impacts of generative AI. Reactions range from dystopian to optimistic as civic and technology leaders debate issues around control, the risks of misuse, and the upside benefits of higher productivity and efficiency. The 2024 Economic Forecast Luncheon will bring together leading economists and business strategists to discuss AI’s applications, its dissemination across industry, its potential risks and benefits, and the role being played by the San Francisco Bay Area.

Other topics will include:

  • How inflation and interest rates could affect the economy in 2024.
  • The outlook for the Bay Area economy, including tech, biotech and commercial real estate.
  • APEC’s impact on San Francisco’s economy.
  • Changes to the global economy, including relationships of the U.S. with China, India, North America (Canada and Mexico), and Europe.
