Leadership Shifting at Bay Area Council Economic Institute

SAN FRANCISCO—The Bay Area Council Economic Institute says Micah Weinberg will become president of the organization February 1, succeeding long-time leader Sean Randolph as he assumes the new role of senior director. The transition comes as the Economic Institute is enjoying a period of robust growth, in both projects and visibility.

“The future of the Economic Institute couldn’t be brighter,” said Laura D’Andrea Tyson, chair of the Economic Institute’s board of trustees. “We are extremely fortunate to have a leader of Dr. Weinberg’s caliber take the reins at the same time that Dr. Randolph continues to contribute his immense knowledge and talents to the organization. This change will bring new energy to the institute and deepen the expertise we already bring to exploring and understanding the Bay Area’s unique and unparalleled innovation and economic ecosystem.”
