What is NABE TEC?
Each year, NABE’s Tech Economics Conference brings together hundreds of applied economists, data scientists, academics, and graduate students for an intellectual exchange on how developments in economics and data science are impacting approaches, frameworks, tools, and techniques employed by practitioners at tech companies and other businesses. TEC2023 will also include the NABE Industry Job Fair, designed to deliver the resumes of top economics candidates to employers from leading tech firms and other firms hiring candidates with highly technical backgrounds and training in economics.

Health/Safety Guidelines
Effective November 29, 2022, NABE will no longer require proof of vaccination status to attend a NABE in-person meeting or event. Mask-wearing at NABE meetings and events is optional.
Instead, NABE expects attendees to take responsibility themselves for following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) on measures to reduce infection from COVID-19 and to protect against severe complications. NABE encourages all attendees to follow the CDC’s recommendation that everyone over age 5 receive the updated 2023-2024 vaccine as soon as they are eligible to do so (e.g., 2 months past their last shot). For more information, please review the guidelines here.
All attendees are asked to take an at-home COVID-19 rapid antigen test before traveling to any NABE meeting and should not attend if they test positive or have symptoms of COVID-19. NABE will also have COVID tests available onsite. NABE will not be requiring proof of these measures, but calls on the NABE community to act responsibly and with consideration for the health and safety of others.
Code of Conduct:
All participants at NABE events must abide by the NABE Code of Conduct.
