A New Chapter for Fourth Economy
Celebrating 15 years of impact and exciting new chapter for Fourth Economy sees Sally J Guzik appointed as President.
This year marks a milestone for Fourth Economy - 15 years of helping communities thrive and economies grow.
Back in 2021, Fourth Economy became part of Steer, bringing its deep economic development expertise into our global consultancy. Since then, the combined strength of Fourth Economy and Steer’s global reach has enabled us to take on even bigger challenges – with greater scale, insight and purpose.
Today, we’re delighted to share that Sally J. Guzik has been appointed as President of Fourth Economy, leading this next phase of growth and impact. Her leadership propels us forward as we work more closely than ever across strategy, infrastructure, innovation, and inclusive economic development.
Fourth Economy has always been about people-centred change – collaborating with public, private and civic partners to build more resilient economies. Now, as part of the Steer group, we’re combining global experience with local insight to bring even stronger results for our clients and the communities you serve.
From statewide housing action plans and agriculture-sector strategies, to deep engagement in infrastructure, mobility and equitable growth – our teams are already delivering across North America and beyond.
We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved together – and even more excited about what comes next.
