From addressing trade shocks to boosting equality of opportunity, geography is central to many of today’s most exciting and resonant advances in the field of economics. This growing recognition paved the way for place-based policy to finally have its moment in Washington.
The Economic Innovation Group is excited to host our conference, Power of Place: Unlocking Growth and Opportunity for the Next Decade, on these important issues. This intimate invitation-only gathering will bring together leading thinkers and practitioners to discuss the nation’s evolving economic geography and what we can learn from this era of policy experimentation to forge a more dynamic, resilient, and inclusive U.S. economy.
