About the Economic Outlook Survey

The Economic Outlook Survey is an online survey that gathers the perspectives of business leaders and entrepreneurs on the economic outlook for their organizations and their economic regions. US and Canada chambers of commerce, business associations, and economic development groups are invited to distribute this survey to their members. In return, each participating association receives a free report on their results as well as the overall results.

This program is offered at no charge in an effort to promote the value of private sector growth. Our goal is to work with associations to support startups and business growth throughout the US and Canada.
