Dr. Michael Mandel will lead a forum for journalists and policymakers to discuss key trends in U.S. and global savings and investment, with the goal of identifying potential story ideas and policy opportunities. Topics will include why investment in physical, human, and knowledge capital is essential for the future of the U.S. economy, and an examination of why the government data measuring investment is woefully incomplete and misleading. Dr. Mandel is a senior fellow at the Progressive Policy Institute and former chief economist at BusinessWeek. Strictly limited seating.
