Since the club’s launch in January 1985, audiences have come to hear from leaders of top businesses and organizations in the Phoenix area and beyond.

ECP kicks off virtually on Thursday, Oct. 5, from noon to 1 p.m. with a keynote presentation from Amram Knishinsky, CEO of OdySea Aquarium and lead developer of the Arizona Boardwalk. ECP is the premier forum in the Valley for the exchange of ideas about business and the economy.
