More than six months into the Covid-19 pandemic, the country continues to battle the virus without much respite. Like the rest of the U.S. market, the AEC industry is experiencing significant volatility and uncertainty as it navigates through this crisis. This uncertainty will likely persist until we see more medical advances or at least sustained declines in new cases. However, we are gaining a clearer understanding of how the pandemic is impacting key drivers of the engineering industry and what it means for market stakeholders. Compared to just a few months ago, we are also getting a firmer grasp on the direction of the U.S. economy and what our path to economic recovery may look like.
Please join Greg Powell, head of FMI’s A/E/Env. Investment Banking practice, in a discussion on the current state of the U.S. engineering market and the key factors to consider as we look ahead. In this webinar, we will discuss:
- The present condition of the broader economy and financial markets as well as consensus opinions on the financial outlook for the rest of 2020 and into next year.
- The varying impact of the pandemic and recession on key sectors across the AEC industry and what it means for the projections for each sector.
- Market outlook expectations among leading design and construction company leaders.
- Updated market forecast by key geographic regions.
- Some ways in which the pandemic is likely to change how we live, how we work, and how we operate in the AEC industry moving forward.
