Join the Long Beach Economic Partnership for Accelerate Long Beach, our quarterly economic forum, where this time around we’ll explore a bright spot in our regional economic picture: the trade and logistics industry.
We'll hear from the Cal State University, Long Beach Office of Economic Research about what record-breaking port throughput meant for our local economy in 2020, and what we can expect in the coming year.
We'll also hear from City of Long Beach and Port of Long Beach officials about investments being made in trade infrastructure, and from business leaders on how they're looking toward the future and planning for a post-COVID recovery.
The information and data we'll share will be especially useful to people who operate businesses in Long Beach or are looking to invest here.
