Orange County Economic Summit to Explore Regional Growth and Economic Outlook

Orange County will host its Economic Summit on October 16 at SUNY Orange in Middletown, bringing together business and community leaders to examine economic trends, challenges and opportunities shaping the region's future.


The event will feature economist Gus Scacco, who will discuss the economic outlook for the next five years, including emerging trends, potential risks and opportunities for growth.


The summit comes as Orange County and the broader Hudson Valley continue to navigate changing economic conditions, infrastructure needs and demand for housing and commercial development.


For real estate professionals, regional economic trends provide valuable insight into factors that influence housing demand, property values, commercial investment and long-term development opportunities. Understanding these trends can help REALTORS® better advise clients and anticipate changes in local markets.


The summit will provide an opportunity to examine the economic forces influencing Orange County's future and the potential implications for businesses, residents and the real estate industry.
