8th Annual Summit on the Economy

The 8th Annual Summit on the Economy

The 8th Annual Summit on the Economy, organized by the Governor’s Woods Foundation and the Economic Innovation Group, will assemble a diverse array of economic thinkers, innovators, policymakers, technologists, business leaders, and media commentators to wrestle through the questions of how to move the equilibrium between economic stakeholders in a more healthy direction that respectively addresses what is driving economic crises, what is leaving more people behind, and what is depressing the very innovation and opportunity that the US economy needs in order to be revitalized and lift more boats.
