FEATURING KEYNOTE SPEAKER


CHRISTOPHER THORNBERG, PHD

Christopher Thornberg Ph.D. founded Beacon Economics LLC in 2006. Under his
leadership the firm has become one of the most respected research organizations
in California serving public and private sector clients across the United
States. In 2015, Dr. Thornberg also became Director of the UC Riverside School
of Business Center for Economic Forecasting and Development and an Adjunct
Professor at the School.

An expert in economic and revenue forecasting, regional economics, economic
policy, and labor and real estate markets, Dr. Thornberg has consulted for
private industry, cities, counties, and public agencies in Los Angeles, San
Francisco and the Bay Area, San Diego, the Inland Empire, New York, Seattle,
Orange County, Sacramento, Arizona, Nevada, and other geographies across the
nation. He has also worked on Wall Street, advising hedge fund manager Paulson &
Co. about macroeconomic issues.

Recent notable projects include housing and rent control studies for the
California Apartment Association; research supporting the strategic allocation
of American Rescue Plan Act funds for the County of San Joaquin; an analysis and
forecast of the socioeconomic factors that affect traffic growth and demand
along a major interstate in Southern California; research on affordable housing
in Los Angeles for a major law firm; quarterly regional economic outlooks for
the East Bay Economic Development Alliance; a recession recovery plan for the
City and County of San Francisco; an annual economic assessment of LA’s city
council districts for the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce; an economic and
revenue forecast for the City of San Luis Obispo; an analysis of the local
technology industry for the Santa Cruz County Workforce Development Board; and
an economic impact study for the 2024 Los Angeles Olympic Games Committee.

Dr. Thornberg became nationally known for forecasting the subprime mortgage
market crash that began in 2007 and was one of the few economists on record to
predict the global economic recession that followed.

Well known for his ability to capture and hold audiences, Dr. Thornberg has
presented to hundreds of leading business, government, and nonprofit
organizations across the globe including Chevron, The New Yorker, Colliers
International, Western Alliance Bank, the California Chamber of Commerce, City
National Bank, the National Confectioner’s Association, the California State
Association of Counties, State Farm Insurance, the City of Los Angeles, the
California and Nevada Credit Union League, and the National Steel and
Shipbuilding Company, among many others. He has testified before the U.S.
Congress House Committee on Financial Services on municipal debt issues, before
the California State Assembly Committee on Revenue and Taxation regarding rule
changes related to Proposition 13, and before the Los Angeles City Council about
proposed changes to local minimum wage laws.

Dr. Thornberg is a contributor to consensus economic forecasts published by the
Wall Street Journal, Reuters, the National Association of Business Economists,
and the Seidman Research Institute at Arizona State University. He also serves
on the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce, is an
Executive Member of the Central City Association (Los Angeles), and is a member
of the California Association for Local Economic Development.

Prior to launching Beacon Economics, Dr. Thornberg was a senior economist with
UCLA’s Anderson Forecast. He previously taught in the MBA program at UCLA’s
Anderson School, in the Rady School of Business at UC San Diego, and at
Thammasat University in Bangkok, Thailand. He has also held a faculty position
in the economics department at Clemson University.

A well-known media commentator, Dr. Thornberg has appeared on all the major
networks, CNN, NPR, and is regularly quoted in major national dailies including
the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and Los Angeles Times.

Originally from upstate New York, Dr. Thornberg holds a Ph.D. in Business
Economics from The Anderson School at UCLA, and a B.S. degree in Business
Administration from the State University of New York at Buffalo.

offers diversity that few locations can match. More than two million people live
in Riverside County, taking advantage of affordable housing, nearby beaches,
mountains, hiking and bike trails, the Wine Country near Temecula and resorts

California's fourth largest county by population is expanding its economy,
working to make Riverside County as business-friendly as possible and using
health and recreations strategies to make the county a healthier place for
residents. Each year, millions visit the county to take advantage of the
glorious desert winter, attend the Riverside County Fair and National Date
Festival, the Balloon and Wine Festival, the Palm Springs International Film
Festival, the Coachella and Stagecoach mega-concerts, the Paribas Open at the
Indian Wells Tennis Center and the Humana Challenge, the golf tournament
formerly known as the Bob Hope Classic. All those, combined with a rich cultural
heritage and frontier history, make Riverside County a great place to live, work
or visit.
