Arizona Week Friday features three state economists all expressing optimism about the state's economy for the next couple of years. Watch here.

One says there won't be another recession, another says governmental incentives will begin to show their worth this year, and a third says she is optimistic but thinks the state has a ways to go in technology transfers and innovation.

On the program:

• State Director of Economic Analysis Aruna Murthy.

• Private-sector economist Jim Rounds.

• University of Arizona research economist Lora Mwaniki-Lyman.

And journalists Jahna Berry, who covers the job market for the Arizona Republic, and Jeremy Duda, who covers the governor's office for the Arizona Capitol Times.
