Amid the new geopolitical challenges and supply chain hurdles facing companies today, Oppenheimer is steering the conversation on potential opportunities as manufacturing and industrials continue to play an integral role in the modernizing and digitizing industrial economy.”

Erica L. Moffett, Head of Research Marketing Services and Associate Director of Equity Research at Oppenheimer, said, “As market uncertainty prevails with expectations of a tighter monetary policy, investors are understandably concerned about the impact of recent events on the global supply chain and rising energy prices that could fuel short-term inflation. Oppenheimer continues to monitor these and other factors that are shaping the ‘post-COVID’ economy as it spearheads a new round of dialogue on the high-tech industrials sector. Expansion in the United States and around the world stands to benefit many industrial players as they make a strategic transition, and Oppenheimer is delighted to welcome key movers and shakers, investors and thought leaders to our 17th Annual Industrial Growth Conference.”
