TACOMA, Wash. – Understanding the trends of the economic sectors you depend on is vital for sound business planning. At the Tacoma-Pierce County’s virtual Horizons Economic Forecast, you will hear from local and regional business leaders in a wide array of sectors, leading economists will discuss our local, regional, and national economies, and you will get exclusive access to the 2022 Pierce County Economic Index (PCEI) report, our annually commissioned economic forecast.
