Desc	THE ECONOMIC CLUB OF MINNESOTA PROVIDES PUBLIC EDUCATION ON ISSUES THAT AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE IN THE GLOBAL ECONOMY. WE HELD 8 PUBLIC LUNCHEONS THIS SEASON WITH AN ARRAY OF TOP-TIER NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL LEADERS. IN FISCAL YEAR 2016, ATTENDANCE AT EVENTS RANGED FROM 325-425 PER EVENT. IN ADDITION, AS OUR SPEAKER'S SCHEDULES PERMIT, WE ALSO LIKE TO HOST ADDITIONAL MEETINGS WITH STUDENTS, TOP BUSINESS LEADERS, THE LOCAL PRESS, AND TOURS OF AREA COMPANIES TO HELP THEM BETTER UNDERSTAND THE VITALITY OF MINNESOTA'S ECONOMY. WE OCCASIONALLY WRITE OPINION PIECES ON TOPICS IMPACTING THE GLOBAL ECONOMY.THIS WAS THE SECOND YEAR OF OUR YOUNG PROFESSIONALS CLUB (YPC) AND WE HOSTED TWO EVENTS FOR EMERGING BUSINESS LEADERS UNDER AGE 40. THE FIRST EVENT FEATURED ENTREPRENEUR AMY LANGER, THE CEO OF SALO, LLC, WHO DISCUSSED RISK-TAKING AND THE IMPORTANCE OF NETWORKING. THE SECOND EVENT FEATURED FORMER CONGRESSMAN TIM PENNY, WHO SPOKE ABOUT THE IMPACT OF THE NATIONAL DEBT ON MILLENNIALS AND TOOK THEIR MANY QUESTIONS ON THE TOPIC.WE CONTINUED TO INCREASE OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE AND LOCAL MEDIA COVERAGE OF OUR EVENTS. THIS HIGHLIGHTS THE ECONOMIC ISSUES RAISED BY OUR SPEAKERS AND EXPANDS AWARENESS OF THESE IMPORTANT TOPICS, INCLUDING MONETARY POLICY, TRANSPORTATION, TRADE, AND FOOD SECURITY.THIS YEAR WE ADDED TWO NEW EVENTS. WE LAUNCHED OUR "CEO RECEPTION IN D.C.,"WHICH GIVES A MINNESOTA CEO THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TO A GROUP OF MINNESOTANS WHO WORK IN VARIOUS GOVERNMENTAL AND NON-GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES IN WASHINGTON, D.C.. THIS EVENT ENCOURAGES NETWORKING AMONG MINNESOTANS WHO WORK IN VARIOUS ROLES IN OUR NATION'S CAPITOL AND GIVES A BUSINESS LEADER FROM MINNESOTA THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLAIN HOW VARIOUS POLICIES BEING CONSIDERED IN D.C. AFFECT (OR COULD AFFECT) THE ECONOMY IN MINNESOTA. WE ALSO ADDED A HALF-DAY CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL FOOD SECURITY CALLED OUR "FOOD SECURITY SUMMIT." MINNESOTA HAS A COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE IN FOOD PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION AND RESEARCH IN AGRICULTURE AND FOOD SCIENCE, WHICH WE HIGHLIGHTED THROUGH A HALF-DAY CONFERENCE FEATURING TWO PANELS OF MINNESOTA CEOS. THE DISCUSSIONS WERE MODERATED BY A JOURNALIST FROM NEW YORK WHO HAS EXPERTISE IN THIS AREA. THE EVENT WAS VERY WELL-RECEIVED AND WE MAY DO SIMILAR EVENTS IN FUTURE YEARS.	Desc
