What lies ahead for the engineering industry—and how are firm leaders feeling about today’s business climate?

In this session, the ACEC Research Institute will present highlights from the 2025 Engineering Economic Assessment and Forecast, the definitive analysis of the industry’s contribution to the U.S. economy, including GDP, jobs, taxes, sector performance, and a five-year revenue outlook. The presentation will also feature the latest results from the Q3 Engineering Business Sentiment and mid-quarter update, offering real-time insights into how engineering firm leaders view the economy, firm finances, sector performance, and hiring trends.

Together, these two perspectives—long-term forecasts and near-term sentiment—will provide attendees with a comprehensive, data-driven picture of the challenges and opportunities facing the engineering industry in the months and years ahead.
