UNLV's Center for Business and Economic Research will present its annual "Economic Outlook Conference" on Dec. 18.
At the conference, Dr. R. Keith Schwer, director of the center, will review current economic conditions and discuss the 2002 economic forecasts for Southern Nevada and the nation.
The conference will take place from 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the UNLV International Gaming Institute, located in the Stan Fulton Building. (The building is located at the southeast corner of Flamingo Road and Swenson Street.)
The cost for an individual to register for the conference, which includes parking, is $50. Registered participants will receive the publication Economic Outlook 2002. The publication is on sale for $25.
"We feel that people will find this conference to be very helpful," Schwer said. "With uncertain economic conditions, not only in Southern Nevada, but throughout the United States, up-to-date information on taxes, possible government actions, as well as foreign policies are all important factors decision-makers must consider for their future planning."
