SUMMARY:2026 Economic Forecast
DESCRIPTION:Join the San Rafael Chamber of Commerce at its signature event\, the 2026 Economic Forum. This event is all about economic vitality\, which has evolved into a buzz word\, but we want to break it down into topics that can be more easily discussed.\n\n\n	  Renowned Economist\, Christopher Thornberg of Beacon Economics\n	  County Executive\, Derek Johnson\n\nPanel One: The Architecture of a Workforce Lifecycle\n\nThis panel will explore how the workforce is shaped over time through interconnected systems  from early education and career exposure to skilled trades\, professional pathways\, and the evolving role of older workers. Panelists will examine where these systems align\, where gaps emerge\, and how better coordination can strengthen workforce resilience and long-term economic vitality.\n\nPanel Two: Housing that Sustains a Thriving Economy\n\nThis conversation will focus on housing as a critical driver of workforce retention\, economic stability\, and community sustainability. Panelists will discuss how housing availability\, governance structures\, and housing choice affect local economies\, including the balance of state and local decision-making\, how we accommodate growth that has already occurred\, and why a mix of housing types is essential to Marin's long-term economic health.
