UCCS College of Business professors Tom Zwirlein and Jeff Ferguson started the forum in 1997, then known as the Southern Colorado Economic Forum. Later, Fred Crowley, a senior instructor in the College of Business, worked with Zwirlein and helped build the forum into a half-day event. Bailey joined the forum in 2014 as Zwirlein and Crowley retired. In 2016, the forum\u2019s name changed to UCCS Economic Forum to reflect a broader scope and its UCCS roots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
