CREW Boston’s September luncheon featured Doug Poutasse of Bentall Kennedy, a Harvard-trained economic analyst and forecaster who shared his insights on mega trends in capital markets, the real estate industry and the overall economy. Overall, Poutasse said that the U.S. economy is poised for continued growth, with 2.5 million jobs created within the last year. However, consumers remain cautious and have decreased spending despite an increase in wages. Demographically, immigrants, baby boomers and millennials are key transformative forces in terms of labor markets, housing markets and consumption. The election does raise the risk of market uncertainty or policy changes but so far, the future looks bright.

Following up on June’s CREW Boston Annual Meeting, and as motivation to FINALLY read one of these amazing women's books, the Entrepreneur Exchange Group held a discussion of luncheon speaker Carla Harris' 2014 publication, Strategize to Win. While we didn’t all manage to read the whole book in time, Carla’s words at the annual meeting certainly gave us plenty to talk about. Discussion of how Carla’s Pearls and strategies translate to entrepreneurs and small business owners was extremely insightful. We look forward to getting into some of these topics in future meetings.
