2026: Future Histories

In 2011, the Economy League partnered with a leading scenario planning firm, Decision Strategies International, to create four stories describing very different, but very possible, ways that national and global trends could play out over the next 15 years.

These futures, presented in the report 2026: Future Histories of Greater Philadelphia, were used to stimulate thought and discussion among Greater Philadelphia’s leaders about what our region must focus on in the years to come.
