Fall 2026 Economic Update: What Integrators Should Be Watching


Thursday, September 17, 2026
11:00 AM - 12:00 PM (CDT)

The economic landscape is shifting quickly. That's why we keep bringing NSCA's Chief Economist, Dr. Chris Kuehl, back: to help you make sense of the latest developments affecting your business.

From global events and trade policy to labor availability, construction activity, and business confidence, Dr. Kuehl will cut through the headlines to focus on what it all means for integrators. His practical insights will help you plan for the rest of 2026—and into 2027. You can also bring your own questions to hear Dr. Kuehl's perspective.

He'll discuss:

  • The latest economic indicators: What recent data tells us about the direction of the U.S. economy.
  • Trade policy, tariffs, and supply chains: How current developments may affect product costs and project planning.
  • Commercial construction outlook: Where opportunities are emerging—and where caution may be warranted.
  • Labor market trends: What employment conditions mean for hiring and wages.
  • Global events and geopolitical uncertainty: How international developments could influence the integration industry.
  • The impact of the 2026 midterm elections: The impact of election outcomes on business policy, regulation, and economic confidence.

Whether you're evaluating your backlog, planning capital investments, or preparing your 2027 budget, this webinar will provide the context and perspective you need to make informed decisions.
