Winning the Next Decade: AI, Workforce & Economic Development

Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future trend, it is actively reshaping how businesses hire, train, invest, and grow.

Join the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce and Leadership Montco for a timely luncheon exploring how AI is transforming workforce development, economic growth, and regional competitiveness.

Featuring keynote speaker Bruce Yifan Zou, EdD of Wharton Executive Education and the University of Pennsylvania, followed by an expert panel representing the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, PA CareerLink Montgomery County, and Montgomery County's business community.

Together, we'll explore:

• How AI is changing workforce needs and talent pipelines
• What employers are doing today to successfully integrate AI
• The impact of global investment trends on local economies
• How businesses, educators, and community leaders can prepare for the future
• Practical strategies organizations can implement now to remain competitive

Most importantly, attendees will leave with "3 Things Every Organization Should Do Before 2027" real-world takeaways that can be applied immediately.

This program is designed for business owners, executives, HR professionals, educators, nonprofit leaders, municipal officials, and anyone interested in the future of work and economic growth in Montgomery County.
