May 30, 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

The International Economic Development Council (IEDC) is hosting a webinar on the Content Crunch: How the Role of Economic Developers is Evolving and What You’ll Need Next on Friday, May 30th, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.

Join TEDx speaker and Localintel CEO Dave Parsellas he shares the results of a national survey revealing how your role as an economic developer is changing – and what skills you’ll need to stay ahead. Today, economic developers are expected to analyze data, design visuals, and create content – all while juggling the many other demands of the job. Over half of your peers are producing data-informed content every week for presentations, websites, reports, marketing materials, and more. Yet many say the tools they rely on weren’t built for this kind of work, making it harder to deliver high-quality content quickly and consistently. In this eye-opening session, you’ll learn what the survey uncovered about the evolving demands of your profession, and why data storytelling, content creation, and design thinking are no longer “nice to have” – they’re now core to your success.
