Ball State emeritus professor Gary Santoni, formerly with the St. Louis Federal Reserve, will share his economic predictions for 2007 during the Nov. 9 meeting of the Executive Economic Exchange.

The 7:30 a.m. breakfast meeting at the Ritz Charles in Carmel also will feature Steve Russell, CEO of Celadon, who will discuss trends in the trucking industry, and David Reed of CB Richard Ellis, who will discuss commercial development in Indianapolis.

The Executive Economic Exchange was formed to bring business executives and academic economists together to discuss recent economic events and their relevance, to provide local and national forecasts and offer a forum for exchanging information. Ball State's Miller College of Business is one of several co-sponsors.

The meeting is open to the public. The cost is $25 and participants need to register in advance at www.ExecutiveEconomicExchange.com.
