March 24, 2026 Forum – AI: Economic Pros and Cons

March 24 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

Artificial Intelligence. Love it or hate it, it’s here. For the past several months, it seems you can’t glance at a newsfeed anymore without some reference to this phenomenon. Our concern is how it will affect our economy –  for better or worse.

To that end, we are preparing a panel to discuss some of the impacted areas. We intend to have representatives from the State of Oregon, Clackamas County, the City of Oregon City, Clackamas Community College, and the health industry.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the economy, presenting a unique set of challenges and opportunities for the business community. This Forum will explore how AI is reshaping industries – from healthcare and technology to education and government – and what these shifts mean for our community’s resilience and growth. Join us for a comprehensive conversation on how we all can navigate the “dangers” of automation and digital transition while seizing the “economic opportunities” of innovation and investment.

This subject is both timely and, frankly, too important to miss. We hope to see you all there.

This is not for the buffet line, but this will be a plated meal brought to you to accommodate your dietary needs. At our event, we understand the importance of catering to diverse dietary needs. If you require a special plated meal tailored to your dietary restrictions, we offer this meal for $32 for any guest, member or non-member. However, if you have special dietary needs and would prefer to enjoy the buffet option, we kindly ask you do not opt for the special plated meal. Our goal is to ensure that every guest has a delightful dining experience, so please indicate your preference accordingly. The menu at the buffet will list any vegetarian, dairy-free, and gluten-free options. We need to know any special plated meals by the Wednesday before the event to accommodate your needs.
