Dodge Construction Network will conduct its Construction Industry OUTLOOK Mid-Year Update. The webinar will be segmented by region: West, Northeast, Midwest and South.
This webinar is an authoritative resource for construction executives, industry leaders and media professionals. It revisits Dodge’s initial predictions for the year and offers critical insight into the U.S. economic and construction landscape for the second half of 2022.
At the 2022 OUTLOOK conference held in November 2021, Dodge Construction Network’s Chief Economist Richard Branch shared that the dollar value of construction starts was likely to increase 6 percent in 2022. This event will give an update on where the construction economy stands on meeting that prediction.
Each webinar will begin with a national outlook from Richard Branch, Chief Economist for Dodge Construction Network. The localized sessions will be led by David Reaves and Sarah Martin. All webinars will include predictions for residential, nonresidential, building and nonbuilding sectors. A live Q&A opportunity will follow each session.
