APEBC

APEBC logo

APEBC is British Columbia’s premier association for business economists and other professionals interested in economic policy and research. Founded in Canada’s centennial year of 1967, our members work for a wide range of organizations in government, academia, think-tanks, finance, business and consulting. We convene economic policy and research seminars approximately once a month, along with social events and opportunities for networking and professional development.

What We Do

APEBC regularly hosts events aimed at keeping our membership informed, enriched and connected.

  • Luncheons – Regular events featuring expert local, Canadian and international speakers from a broad spectrum of industries to enlighten and stimulate discussion on topics of local, provincial, national and international interest.
  • Meet & Greets – A chance for members to meet others in the profession, network and build relationships.
  • Workshops – Offering members and guests opportunities to add to and develop their skill sets.
  • The Annual Crystal Ball Award Presentation – Honouring the best economic forecaster in BC, according to how well participants predict eight economic indicators.
