AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

NOAA Relief: NOAA says $123.6 million is headed to West Coast and Alaska fishermen for fishery resource disasters tied to Oregon, California, Washington’s Squaxin Island, and multiple Alaska fisheries from 2019-2023. Supply Chain Watch: Seattle-based Flexe is pitching its Spot Warehousing Index at Reuters Supply Chain USA, warning of “warehousing stagflation” as vacancy rises for 16 straight quarters while lease rates climb 22%. Local Business & Housing: Spokane-area landlords face longer, more costly eviction timelines as new city rules require outreach to eviction prevention programs before proceeding. Legal & Economy: Spokane probate work is surging as baby boomers reach end-of-life planning, with some firms reporting 50% to 100% jumps in demand. Workforce & Growth: Spokane’s legal job market for attorneys looks steady despite turnover, with experienced lawyers moving laterally more easily than new grads. AI & Trust: New studies on AI in news find human oversight boosts credibility, while disclosure can be a double-edged sword for reader trust. Tech/VC: Spokane investors say AI-driven venture funding is concentrating deals and pushing valuations higher, leaving non-AI startups facing tougher odds. Retail Expansion: Starbucks’ India unit plans 50-100 new stores annually as coffee demand grows and competition heats up. Weather & Risk: A wildfire east of Spokane forced evacuations of about 1,500 people and destroyed at least 15 homes.
