About NABE:

 

NABE is the premier professional association for business economists and others who use economics in the workplace. Since 1959, NABE has attracted the most prominent figures in economics, business, and academia to its membership with highly-regarded conferences, educational and career development offerings, industry surveys, and its unrivaled networking opportunities. Past presidents of NABE include former Chairman of the Board of Governors for the Federal Reserve System, Alan Greenspan, several former Federal Reserve Governors, and other senior business leaders.

The NABE membership is organized into subject-oriented Roundtables including: Corporate Planning, Financial, Health Economics, International, Manufacturing/Industry, Small Business/Entrepreneurship, Real Estate/Construction, Regional/Utility, Technology and Transfer Pricing.

 

NABE's mission is to provide leadership in the use and understanding of economics.

A group of students at a college or university with an interest in business economics may form a NABE Student Chapter. The PDF Files provide more information on forming and running a student chapter.
