Our Mission
The National Economists Club encourages the exchange of ideas on economics, business, and policy through meetings featuring leading experts in the field.
Members, mostly from around the nation’s capital, hail from business, government, academe, nonprofits, and international organizations. Our event programming features regular luncheons, receptions, and other events designed for socializing and networking. NEC is affiliated with the National Association for Business Economics, is nonpartisan, and takes no policy positions.
