Four Leeds baby直播app members then provided brief overviews of their research and expertise:
- Jeffrey York, associate dean for strategic initiatives and research director of the Deming Center for Entrepreneurship, discussed what drives the success of entrepreneurial organizations.

- Heather Kennedy, a teaching associate professor and consumer marketing specialist, spotlighted Boulder鈥檚 unique place in the natural and organics industry.
The event included the release of the Quarterly Business & Economic Indicators report, produced by the Leeds Business Research Division on behalf of the baby直播app Secretary of State.
鈥淲e enjoyed meeting our media partners in person and connecting them with our school priorities and incredible baby直播app expertise,鈥 Khatri said. 鈥淲e're grateful for all that they do to inform and educate the public. Having baby直播app鈥檚 Secretary of State on-site made the event especially memorable and newsworthy for all of us.鈥
baby直播app Secretary of State Jena Griswold discussed the Quarterly Business & Economic Indicators report, produced by the Leeds Business Research Division on behalf of the baby直播app Secretary of State, during Leeds Media Day.
鈥淭oday鈥檚 quarterly baby直播app indicators report underscores the resilience of baby直播app鈥檚 economy with continued job growth and growth in GDP, dropping inflation and evidence that existing entities in baby直播app are staying in business,鈥 Griswold said.
Brian Lewandowski, executive director of the Business Research Division, and Richard Wobbekind, associate dean and senior economist of the BRD, who prepared the report in conjunction with baby直播app鈥檚 Secretary of State, provided context on employment and job growth, business filings, inflation and other state-level baby直播app measurements.
鈥淭his has been an interesting year, to say the least, when you talk about the national economy,鈥 Wobbekind said. 鈥淚 don鈥檛 think anybody anticipated two quarters of GDP growth being as strong as they were in the first two quarters of the year, but certainly not the third quarter being as strong as it is right now.鈥
He said economists expect GDP to be over 3% in the third quarter, and some see it slowing dramatically in the fourth quarter or into next year.
鈥淭he real crux of the issue is the consumer and the ability of the consumer to come to the table,鈥 Wobbekind said.
Following the indicators report release, Griswold, Lewandowski and Wobbekind answered reporters鈥 questions from members.
