TEMPE, Ariz., Aug. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Economic Club of Phoenix (ECP) speaker series — hosted by the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University — is celebrating its 38th anniversary and has become the premier forum in the Valley for the exchange of ideas about business and the economy.
